LEARNING OBJECTIVE:
Students will be able to create a Picasso-inspired face drawing using mixed mediums (crayon, marker, watercolor) by following a step-by-step video tutorial.

ASSESSMENTS:
Students will submit their completed Picasso face drawings for evaluation based on a rubric that assesses creativity, use of mixed mediums, and adherence to the steps demonstrated in the video.

KEY POINTS:
Mixed Mediums: Understanding how to effectively combine crayon, marker, and watercolor in a cohesive artwork.

Proportions and Features: Learning about Picasso's unique style, including abstract proportions and exaggerated features.

Step-by-Step Process: Following directions from a video tutorial to ensure all students can create their own artwork.

Creativity: Encouraging individual expression within the framework of the assignment.

OPENING:
Begin with a discussion about Pablo Picasso and his contributions to art, focusing on his unique style.

Show a few examples of Picasso's artwork, emphasizing the abstract features and mixed mediums.

Ask students, "What do you notice about the faces in Picasso's artwork?" to engage them and spark curiosity.

INTRODUCTION TO NEW MATERIAL:
Play the step-by-step video tutorial on how to draw a Picasso face.
Pause at key moments to explain techniques for using each medium (crayon, marker, watercolor).

Discuss the importance of mixing colors and layering mediums.
Common Misconception: Some students may think they need to perfectly replicate the video; clarify that individual creativity is encouraged.

GUIDED PRACTICE:
As a class, create a simple sketch of a Picasso face on the board.
Model the use of crayon, then add marker details, and finally demonstrate the watercolor technique.

Encourage students to ask questions as they work.
Walk around the classroom to monitor progress and provide feedback on their sketches.

INDEPENDENT PRACTICE:
Students will create their own Picasso face drawing using the mixed mediums discussed.

Set clear behavioral expectations, such as respecting materials and quietly working on their art.

Remind students to refer back to the video if they need help with specific steps.

CLOSING:
Have students share their artwork with a partner and discuss what they enjoyed about the process.

Ask a few volunteers to present their completed drawings to the class and explain their use of mediums.

EXTENSION ACTIVITY:
Students who finish early can create a second drawing using a different style (e.g., cubism) or explore adding background elements to their artwork.

HOMEWORK:
For homework, students can research another artist who uses mixed mediums and write a short paragraph about their style and techniques.

STANDARDS ALIGNED:
This lesson aligns with the Tennessee Art K-12 Standards, specifically focusing on creating art using a variety of materials and techniques, understanding artistic styles, and expressing ideas through visual art.
