31. Pablo Picasso’s work changed in many ways over his lifetime. He not only painted, but was a sculpture also. Picasso lived to be ninety-two years old. He made prints, drawings, beautifully coloured dishes and bowls. He even made costumes and scenery for plays. Sometimes Picasso would paint things that looked very flat. Sometimes he would paint things that looked so round that you might be able to pick them up off of the painting.

32. Picasso’s best friend died. And Picasso felt alone and sad. At the same time, none of his paintings were selling and he was almost starving to death. Because of his mood, Picasso began to paint with lots of blue (blue can be a very sad colour). He made all the people in his paintings look lonely and sad.

33. Picasso’s blue period ended when he met a girl named Fernande. Fernande and Picasso fell in love, and soon a happier color started showing up in Picasso’s paintings. This was the beginning of the Rose Period. Not only were Picasso’s coolours happier during the Rose Period, but he started painting happier things. Picasso painted a lot of circus people during this tiem. He often painted them with their animals. The Rose Period didn’t last very long, though, because Picasso found a new way to paint that was really exciting and different.

34. Cubism was the next style of painting that Picasso developed and made famous. The paintings look as though they have been broken into little pieces. Picasso started to paint people and things that didn’t look the way people and things were supposed to look. (Many of Picasso’s paintings look funny because of the way he moves eyes, noses, and chins around. He also painted pictures of faces from the front and side view at the same time In 1937 Picasso painted his most powerful and serious painting. During a civil war in Spain, the small town of Guernica was destroyed by bombs. Thousand of innocent people were killed and injured. Picasso became very angry and used everything he knew to make a painting that would show the world how foolish war was. He named the painting after the town that was destroyed.
