Picasso



I have deliberately chosen three completely different pieces for this example. I love picasso's work I have both the picture above and the painting on the bottom on my bedroom walls. However, most people seem only aware of Picasso's style as the middle picture which surprises me. This style is the one I like least of picasso, although a bright use of colour, I find it too busy and distracting and in some ways unsettling, whereas the one above I like the simplicity of.



As I have already said, I do not like this style. Although I am a big fan of colour and use alot of it in my own work, this is just too much colour for me, and it seems there is too much happening all at once on the page.




I love this piece, the texture and colour as well as the choice of subject really appeal to me. It inspired one of my AS projects, and I can never get enough of looking at it. I would love to see the original and analyse how the texture was created.
