Pablo Picasso drew pictures before he could talk. As a child, he sat happily with his paper and pencils and drew for hours. His father, a painter, was very happy that his son liked to draw, but he didn’ t know that one day Pablo would be one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century.
Pablo Picasso was born in 1881 in Malaga, Spain. He was a very bad student, and he hated school. Instead of studying, he drew pictures. When he was only 8 years old, he finished his first oil painting. It had beautiful colors. Picasso never sold this painting.
When Pablo was 14, his family moved to Barcelona. He wanted to go to the school of Fine Arts. To get into the school, a student had to finish a painting in one month. Picasso finished his painting in one day.
When he was 18, Picasso went to live in Paris. He was very poor at first. He lived in a small room and at night worked by only the light of a candle. Sometimes he didn’ t even have money for a candle. But Pablo Picasso had a strong personality. He believed in himself. He created one piece of amazing art after another. He met important people, and they began to buy his work. Eventually Picasso became rich and famous.
Picasso was unusual in many ways. For example, for a long time, he didn’t want a telephone. Then one day his son almost died because he couldn’ t call for help. Picasso was also strange because he didn ’ t throw anything away, not even an empty cigarette package. He liked to be alone, so he locked his studio and wouldn’ t let anyone in. Picasso loved animals. He had a monkey, a goat, snakes, and many dogs. He was married twice, but was not very close to his family and friends. His work was more important to him than people were.
Picasso lived a long and full life. He never stopped working. He painted 200 pictures during the year he was 90. He was still working on the day he died at the age of 91. Picasso left the world the genius of his art.
