    The artist used thick curved lines to depict hair, eyes, and faces, with some diagonal lines for fingers. Picasso used cubist forms to fragment the face into angular planes in The Weeping Woman, distinct from other figures. While some geometrical shapes appear randomly, most shapes used were inorganic, and the artist utilized the whole space to make the painting look larger. Acid green, purple, yellow, and violet colors were used in complementary and analogous harmonies to heighten the emotional intensity, with a rough texture especially in the background.

    Line: 

    the artist uses the thick and curved lines to illustrate the hair, eyes and
    the outline of the face, there are some diagonal lines used to draw the outline
    of the finger.

    Form: The Weeping Woman is distinct from these figures in the way that Picasso
    used cubist forms of fragmentation to depict the face in a series of angular planes

    Shape : there some geometrical shapes when we look randomly, but most of
    the shape used for this painting was inorganic shape.

    Value: The fragmented features and the use of acid green and purple heighten the painting’s
    emotional intensity.

    Color: the artist used the complementary and analogous color harmonies by


    utilizing the yellow color all over the painting and violet or purple are in some
    spaces. There are are green, and yellow color with different tones also are used
    to touch up some of the places.

    Texture: the artist makes  the surface very rough to see especially  to do the
    background.

    Space: the artist uses the whole space to do the painting and makes the
    painting look bigger.
