1.  Using the library or the internet as a source of information, answer the question in 200 words or less, "How may one go about making a drawing in the cubist style."  Write this in your own words.  Do not write anything you do not understand or cannot explain: You WILL be quizzed orally on what you write.

2. Bring two illustrations of cubist pictures, charcoal (vine or compressed) to class.  Be prepared to make a drawing in the cubist style.
