Who is Pablo Picasso?

Pablo Picasso was a super creative artist who made lots of amazing pictures and sculptures that people still love today.

Imagine you have a box full of crayons, and instead of drawing one picture at a time, you take all the crayons out and mix them together to make something completely new. That’s kind of what Pablo did with art, he used different styles and ideas to create weird, funny, and beautiful pictures.

Like a Puzzle Artist

Pablo was like a puzzle artist. He would take one picture, break it into pieces, and then put them together in totally new ways. Sometimes he made people look funny or stretched their faces so much they looked like balloons, that’s called cubism, and it was one of his favorite styles.

A Super Famous Artist
