Student Drawing of Guernica

For our final in-class project, I had the students each take a section of Picasso’s great 1937 painting, Guernica, and draw it using charcoal. We then put them all together to form the large reproduction of the masterpiece. Throughout the quarter, we investigated many artists and styles, including DeKooning, Dali, and Chuck Close to gain a better understanding of their styles and approaches to art making.
