Pablo+Picasso

**__ Pablo Picasso __**
pablopicasso.org =__First impression__: In this picture i see three people looking like they are having a peaceful day playing music with one another. Their bodies and faces are very skeptical,so maybe Picasso has a very skeptical life or at this time he may be going through a rough spot in life, possibly a loved one has been lost or a pet of some sort. Maybe he was bullied as a child and has never recovered so he could very possibly be depressed and/or a introvert. Or vise-versa this could be a very content picture maybe he is a very calm person but at the same time not depressed. I also think this may be a memory for him, like maybe he is playing music with his mother and father as a child. Except the problem with that idea is that all the characters have facial hair. So i assume there are no women in the picture. In that aspect i think this may be with him and his two friends maybe one of them has a very special talent in music or two and the ones not playing are observing the beauty of ones work and maybe reading along on the lyrics making sure they nail every single note. But while i look at this picture i feel very content, confused, and skeptical. Mostly because there is so many different shapes within the picture made up of a bunch of different colors and different brightness's.=

==__Second impression:__ **After researching he painting of the three musicians by Pablo Picasso i realized that the three musicians are actually completely different than what i thought. One is a pierrot, another is a** harlerquin, and the last is a monk. But i was right on the colors, most of the colors are all very bright meaning a happy time in music between the three people. I was also right on the deformed and depicted shapes, not all of the shapes in this paining are common shapes such as a half circle or quarter of a rectangle for example.==

pablopicasso.org ==**__First Impression:__** To me it obviously is a crying woman. I think it is Picasso's sister or mother that is crying, begging him to stay at home instead of leaving to pursue his art career. I believe he is leaving for college and his sister or mother, whoever it is, is pleading him to stay because there is either more for him at home or without him supplying for the family they will be dead broke and move onto the streets.==

==**__Second impression:__** From what i researched about he weeping woman series was that he was painting about the wars going on at the time. The woman he was painting was crying and pleading over the horrors of the war to stop and bring peace to everyone around that is affected by the war and not effected. But I'm still confused as to the bright colors that are being used in the painting because i think of war as a dreadful and horrible thing but with all the yellow being used it makes it look like a happy time that people wouldn't fear. But then again there is also some blue in the woman's hair that also expresses sadness and fear in the character.==

=pahnation.com= =__**First** impression:__ In this picture it is obviously two men, most likely adults that are reading a letter (hints the title of the painting)(Reading the letter). I believe Picasso was painting based on a war letter that required the man on the left of the painting to participate in the war for his country. While his father keeps confronting him to not worry about it and that everything will be ok. While his father will be waiting for him at home. But the young man still has fears that the battle will scare him for life. Or take his life.=

=__Second Impression:__ **In the time of the painting (1820) most** letters were sent from family members, friends, or long time relatives. The picture is an oil on canvas. It has two young men in it and is a classical painting that Picasso knew how to paint very, very well. One of the characters has his hand on his cheek while he is upset. The other one is providing comfort trying to make the other one feel better.= https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/7/74/PicassoGuernica.jpg

==**__First__** __impression:__ My first impression on Picasso's Guernica painting, is it looks like a painting of several different animals, with several different people. They all seem to be in need of something like food, water or maybe something simple like a pencil. But i can tell they need something or really want something because all of the characters have their mouthes open and desperate facial expressions. Also the only colors used in this picture are black, white, and gray. So it could very possibly be a very hard time in Picasso's life or maybe a loved one is having a very, very hard time. He possibly could've lost a loved one or just got turned down by a loved one.== ==__**Second** **Impression:**__ The Guernica is actually one of Picasso's most famous pieces of art and is actually a very powerful political statement. It is a response to the Nazis attack on pretty much all races in Europe and the middle east that don't agree with there mindset to abolish other religions. But most importantly the reaction is to the Nazis having casual bombing practice in the Basque town of Guernica during the Spanish Civil War. The painting is showing people in need and people that are extremely desperate for help. It shows all the people hurting from the horrible parts of the Spanish Civil War.== www.pablopicasso.org

=__**First** Impression:__ My first impression on Picasso's seated woman painting is a little confusing. Im extremely lost in trying to find my own meaning behind the painting except for the fact a woman is sitting down. In the painting it looks like the woman has two faces, one light colored and the other dark colored. All the colors are very light except for the girls hair and lining in her dress. Knowing that Picasso does most of his paintings on Cubism, i am starting to think that this picture has a lot to do with that. To me the orange bring s happy or reliefe feeling that something got done or you have recently accomplished something like when you win a prize in a competition you are happy, or when you come home knowing your dog didn't chew up the whole coach, you will feel relieved to that.=

=**__Second__** __Impression:__ In this painting it is representing lots of bright orange which shows the instincts of one. To follow what ones mind or heart tells them to do even though it may not be the best choice in particular aspects. The orange is representing Picasso's instincts and the whole painting is representing Cubism like mostly all of Picasso's art work. But after all this research i still have one question for him. Why always Cubism?=

=1. If i were to share one thing about my artist to others i would have to say a few things, Picasso does 99% of his art based off of Cubism, the Spanish war and World War 2. Also he likes to use very few colors in some of his paintings. He may only use 2 colors in a whole painting but then every now and then he will use several different colors in one painting.= =2. That his artwork is horrible and no one likes to see Cubism paintings that show no meaning to someone.= =3. I would definitely ask Picasso what his favorite color was and why does he always paint about Cubism?= =4. Definitely the first one because that was the one i could get the most information of off and go the deepest into detail.= =5. My last one because i had to research specific parts about the painting and i had to infer a lot because i spent 2 days looking for a website for the painting and couldn't find one.= = =
