Pablo Picasso was born in Spain. Today we went to the Picasso Museum in Barcelona.
Q: Out of the two Picasso paintings above, which do you think he did when he was 15?
A: He did the first painting called Alter Boy when he was 15 and the second painting called Boy in Sailor Suit with butterfly net when he was 53!
This painting is called Guernica it was painted by Picasso to show how foolish war is. This painting is 12 feet high and 25 feet wide!
If you want to practice drawing like Picasso you can go to this web site: picassohead. It's really fun. We made lots of pictures this evening.
Thanks Harry. Guernica is one of my favorite Picasso paintings. Did you get to see the real thing today? That would be cool. Did you know it was commissioned for the world's fair in Paris? You probably did, because you have a good teacher :)
