To begin, we "abstracted" ourselves in the style of Cubism. To abstract, is simply to change reality. We changed ourselves according to the rules of Cubism: use straight lines and geometric shapes.
Next we added a background. Any background was acceptable, anything from an outdoor scene to just patterns or design (wherever you wanted yourself to be).
Then we added collage, a very traditional Cubist technique. We used newspaper, colored construction paper, and fabric.
We used collage in interesting ways by overlapping it and drawing back on top of it. A color scheme was also an option, but not required (warm and cool used above).
Lastly, to make it more abstract and interesting, we completed it with many media, turning it into a mixed media piece. We added pencil, colored pencil, oil pastel, and marker.
