Pablo Picasso was born in Spain in 1881. He had trouble in school but his father, an art teacher, didn’t mind as Pablo preferred to draw instead.

He moved to Paris to attend art school when he was 23. He was
quite poor and painted sad scenes. This was called his
BLUE PERIOD.

Picasso experimented with his art and along with a friend, he
created CUBISM. Cubists painted objects from many
angles and ignored round shapes and the rules of perspective.
