Dora Maar




Someone asked in a previous post who Dora Maar was. She was one of Picasso's girlfriends and he painted her many times. We based the paintings of ourselves on some of the styles Picasso used to paint her. In some paintings he used complementary colours and in some he used a cubist style. It made her face look a little strange. I promise I will upload some photos of your work onto here this week as they are so good!
