Picasso
Pablo Picasso can rightly be called one of the most amazing and inimitable artists.
He was always different, but always shocking.
The famous paintings of Picasso are an unusual tandem of traditional painting and original art.
He was so devoted to his works that he did not notice his stylistic impermanence.
And this is not the main thing in the works of the Spanish painter.
Pablo Picasso skillfully combined such unusual materials as metal, stone, plaster, charcoal, pencil or oil paints on canvas.
The magnificent artist did not stop at anything.
Perhaps that is why Picasso's paintings are so surprising with their emotionality and courage.
Among the variety of his works, compositions with images of women stand out especially.
Here the artist's canvases are truly shocking with a variety of quirks and extraordinary fantasies It is worth remembering at least "The Girl in Front of the Mirror" (1932).
The lines and colors used once again prove the well known fact that Pablo Picasso did not like women very much.
That is why so often in his works they were surprised by the absurdity of images and forms.
The heroine of the "Morning Serenade" (1942) was crowned with a special absurdity.
Here, Pablo Picasso tried harder than ever.
Dissected and bloated bodies, a shattered profile, strange hats burlesque forms were the favorite for the famous artist.
That is why bright stories, frightening with their power and huge appeal, were so often used by the author, and to this day they do not leave the peaks of the artistic world.
After all, such paintings by Picasso cause inimitable, sensual emotions in the audience.
And what else is needed for an artist who sincerely conveyed on canvas all his natural, sometimes shocking, vital essence.

Pablo Picasso is a genius of modern art
In Spain, in the small city of Malaga, on October 25, 1881, a baby was born.
The birth was difficult, the born boy could not breathe.
To open his lungs, cigarette smoke was blown into his nose.
Thus began the life of the world's youngest "smoker" and at the same time the greatest artist of the nineteenth century, Pablo Picasso.
The boy's unusual talent began to manifest itself in early childhood.
His first word was "pencil", and he learned to draw before he spoke.
Pablo was a spoiled child.
Their parents doted on their only and also very beautiful son.
He hated school and very often refused to go there until his father allowed him to take a pet pigeon from the home dovecote with him.
Besides pigeons, he was very fond of art.
When Pablo was ten years old, his father often took him to college, where he worked as an art teacher.
He could spend hours watching his father draw, and sometimes even helped him.
One day, Pablo's father was drawing pigeons and briefly left the room.
When he returned, he saw that Pablo had finished the painting.
She was so beautiful and lively that he gave his son his palette and brushes and never painted himself again.
At that time, Pablo was only thirteen, but he had already surpassed his teacher.
Since then, paints and brushes have become Pablo's life.
It was obvious that he was a genius.
But, to the disappointment of many, his art was not classical.
He always broke the rules and canons of traditional art and shocked with his strange, but such energetically powerful paintings.
Most of all, he was known for paintings in the style of "cubism" - painting using simple geometric shapes.
For example, he depicted people with triangles and squares, drawing body parts and facial features in completely different places where they should be.
His works have changed people's perception of contemporary art.
Now it is associated with the name of Pablo Picasso.
One of the masterpieces of modern art is his painting "Guernica", painted in 1937, in which the artist captured the bombing of a small town during the Spanish Civil War.
In total, Picasso created more than 6,000 paintings, drawings and sculptures.
Today, his works are worth several million dollars.
Once, when the French minister was visiting Picasso, the artist accidentally spilled some paint on his pants.
Pablo apologized and offered to pay the bill for cleaning his trousers, but the minister said: "No way!
You just signed my pants!"
Pablo Picasso passed away due to heart failure after suffering from the flu in 1973.
Pablo Picasso: All epochs in one artist
Today, Pablo Picasso is rightfully considered one of the most expensive artists according to the results of modern auctions.
The non trivial Spanish artist created his first works at the dawn of the 20th century, and in total he has several tens of thousands of canvases and sculptures on his account.
He was not "fixated" on any one style, but was looking for ways and types of self expression in different artistic directions.
It is impossible to judge about the works of Picasso by one or two works: he transferred his rich inner world to the language of colors, in each picture doing it in a different way from the previous one.
The impressive almost century old century of his work is usually divided into many periods:
The early period, when there was a brush test, a search for moods and bold experiments.
At this time, he lives in Barcelona, then leaves for Madrid to study art, and later – again to Barcelona.
The "blue" period.
Moving to Paris and getting acquainted with the Impressionists deeply contributed to the formation and cutting of the Spaniard's talent.
In the paintings of 1900-1903, he perpetuated various manifestations of sadness, sadness, melancholy.
The "pink" period was marked by new characters in his masterpieces: artists, circus performers.
The "Girl on the Ball" from the Pushkin Museum also belongs to this period.
The atmosphere of sadness in Pablo's work is diluted with lighter, romantic moods.
The "African" period was the first messenger of the author's transition to Cubism proper.
Cubism.
Picasso began to scrupulously disassemble everything that he depicted in his paintings into large and small geometric shapes.
Portraits painted in this technique look especially interesting and innovative.
The classical period.
Acquaintance with the Russian ballet and with his first wife, a ballerina, brings some rethinking to the work of Picasso, who turned to the dogmas of art in the very early 20s and creates paintings that are sharply different from his usual Cubism.
One of his first works in the classical style is "Portrait of Olga in an armchair", where the artist captured his wife in love.
Surrealism.
Since 1925, the author has been experiencing great creative experiences that are guessed in his paintings – the characters are unreal monstrous, the artist makes a challenge, flirts with the viewer's imagination, turning to surrealism.
One of the most famous surreal paintings is "Dream" from 1932.
The military theme came into his creative life with the civil war that engulfed Spain, and then the whole of Europe.
Along with the gloomy social background, the artist's life atmosphere is also influenced by new personal experiences: a new woman appears in his life.
After the war, he creates the world famous "Dove of Peace" and becomes a communist.
This period of his artistic activity reflects his happy years of life.
During this period, he also actively realized himself as a ceramist.
Since the 50s, it is difficult to attribute his paintings to one genre and style – he implements all the unsaid in different manners and techniques.
He also interprets the famous paintings of other artists, writing them out in his own perception.
Picasso's paintings of different periods are leading the art market today, breaking all imaginable price records.
For example, the sum of 104 million dollars was paid in 2004 for his painting "Boy with a Pipe" in 1905, and in 2010 his painting "Nude, Green Leaves and Bust", painted by him in 1932, was sold for 106 million.
Today, you can buy Picasso's paintings at open auctions, but the most famous masterpieces of his work have already taken their places of honor in private collections and the best museums in the world.

Tips from Pablo Picasso
Pablo Picasso is a brilliant man with an unusual mindset.
He has achieved a lot from life.
It makes sense to find out what he advises other people to make life more interesting and fruitful.
Advice is especially important for creative people.
And all people on earth can be considered creative people, people create their own lives.
This is a kind of creativity.
You can live your life boring, reluctantly fulfilling your duties, or you can follow the knowledge of a great genius, and color your everyday life with bright feelings and interesting thoughts.
The age of possibilities does not apply
The first thought, which is better to start sticking to as soon as you find out about it, is nothing.
Age can not prevent you from developing and doing something unusual.
At any time in your life, you can start learning what you want.
Usually people believe that it is the privilege of the young to do unusual things, or to do what they want.
But Picasso has gone far away from such a thing as age.
Age is only useful.
In a sense, a person understands himself with age, determines what he really wants.
But by the time people come close to their desires and understand what they want, for some reason they decide that it's too late.
And it's not too late!
Just the right time.
If the desire is determined, you need to start implementing it, regardless of whether it is 10 years or 50.
The chances are equal.
Only the ossified brain interferes.
But flexibility can also always be developed.
The main thing is to act slowly.
And the flexibility of the brain will return, as in the youngest years.
Action
The main thing is to act.
As long as there is just a plan, it will not give anything.
Action is life.
Action is an experience.
An action is a result.
And it doesnot matter whether it's good or bad.
If it does not work, you need to try it not once, otherwise nothing will happen.
No result (bad or good) this is a small death.
As long as people do not act, they do not develop.
Actions and development are two vital keys that do not allow you to stand still.
Therefore, in order to get results and experience, you need to get up and start acting.
This was the opinion of Pablo Picasso.
New skills
New skills do not allow your brain to get rough.
Creative people always learn what they donot know how to do yet.
Creativity comes from studying the unknown.
Learning the unknown, getting new skills — actions that always accompany people who are used to thinking outside the box.
An important point: Pablo Picasso advises to concentrate on a new action at the moment of engagement as accurately as possible.
Thus, a person will not think about what exactly he may not succeed.
And the brain will not let someone be afraid.
And fear slows down learning quite seriously.
You can wait for inspiration all your life
And I canot wait.
Inspiration is like an appetite.
It comes during creativity.
There are a lot of things that are quietly performed without inspiration.
They are simple.
They are boring to make.
But thanks to such actions, inspiration suddenly comes.
But when a person is inactive, inspiration will most likely get lost somewhere along the way and find someone more hardworking.
So, in order for inspiration to come, you need to reread the part about the action and apply it in practice.
Confidence is an important point
Starting learning some skills, or just a new business, the general mood is important.
The brain is arranged in such a way: if a person thinks that he will not succeed, the brain remembers it.
And then, in the right places, it begins to help the body perform the program, that is, it turns on fear, and makes a person nervous.
Which confuses and leads to an error.
This is how the classic "failed" looks like.
Therefore, if you believe in what you are doing — there are more chances of success.
You need to extract the correct information from everything
Because of the way people ask questions, it is clear that they want to know.
The task of a person is to get as much positive knowledge as possible.
Knowledge about something good.
It follows from this that if something did not work out, you can look for useful skills that a person has acquired from an unsuccessful experience.
For example, I didnot learn how to ride a roller board, you can ask yourself, what did I learn new?
The structure of the board, the materials from which it is made.
Perhaps now you can help your friends with the choice of a device, although it did not work out to learn how to ride, but there is experience in choosing a board, it will help other people.
Always learn
New knowledge pushes the boundaries of the brain.
This is again another step towards a non standard way of thinking.
A non standard course of thought helps to find the most profitable ways out of different situations.
A person cannot be able to do everything.
Therefore, it is necessary to og sit around and explore what is most interesting.
Go to cutting and sewing lessons.
Learn new financial instruments.
Moreover, it is better to choose skills that are not related to the usual everyday affairs in any way.
The more unexpected the choice, the more interesting and useful it will be for the brain.

An inimitable daub, at first conscious and cunning, and at the end of his career just a daub.
If there was no "Girl on the Ball", it could also be considered incompetence.
