I saw this, and had to share

I saw this and after I stopped laughing so hard tears ran down my leg, I wanted to share it with all of you:

I sent that to my wife, who runs an art store. We went to Picasso's house in Paris on vacation.

To be honest, I really can't stand Picasso's works.. But hey, here a dirty unmade bed won an art prize

and a stuffed animal also won a prize

Sad that Picasso's art has been included in main stream art and every art student has to study it and extol it. It's more like the emperor's new clothes.

@marlingardener 's card actually shows superior skills! LOL!

Hi,

Many thanks for sharing marlingardner; it's a vast improvement on original Picasso's in fact it resembles a snowman (being pc should this now read snowperson? ).

Well said alp; Bron and I wouldn't have a picasso hanging in our home we both dislike abstracts; perhaps he was one of the first on drugs?

Kind regards, Colin.

Sometimes I wonder if Picasso got over on the art world?

 

[alp]

perhaps he was one of the first on drugs?

Haha! Definitely NOT!

 

[marlingardener]

Picasso was a much better sculptor than (?)painter. We went to an exhibit of early abstract art, and saw a Picasso sculpture for the first time--fascinating!
I have read that Picasso would sit at a cafe in Paris, make a few lines on a napkin, sign it, and give it away. Then he would laugh himself silly at someone thinking this was "art" because he signed it!

Haha! Definitely NOT!

From what I Know And have read of Him He was in to Poppies in a big way I Think the seed had something that tickled his mind

 

[DirtMechanic]

Maybe. But more likely he was in Paris because something tickled below the buckle. Picasso hid a lot of pornography in his work. And then there was Matisse.

Like drinks to men ,er, very occasionally! Men would all say, Yes! Well, quite a few..

Guilty pleasures we all have .. some in a bigger way than others ..

I wonder if anyone would tell me that I'm drawing like Picasso is a compliment or an excuse for a fight?
