“Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist when he grows up” – Pablo Picasso.
Picasso changed modern art with his bold imagination and child-like drawings. He is a co-founder of the cubism and collage art styles and has strongly influenced other modern art styles.
Anyone can paint like Picasso. You can too! In this beginner’s course, you will find how easy it is to paint in Picasso’s styles. You will get to try with a variety of paint mediums as well – oil pastels, tempera or acrylic paint and collage.
You will get guidance from our artist who will give you feedback on your works.
