    I love how these look. I'm going to try doing something really similar with my youngest art students this year. Thanks for sharing.

    Absolutely love these Picasso portraits. I'm assuming you looked at example of Picasso's art. Fantastic...will definitely do this with my year 5s next year. Excellent!

    Of course! We never do a project without looking at numerous examples! Thanks for the compliment and good luck!
