My mother said to me, ‘If you are a soldier, you will become a general. If you are a monk, you will become the Pope.’ Instead, I was a painter, and became Picasso.
This is a common misconception of Picasso. He could expertly and realistically paint and draw any subject. He studied, and created or helped create, many art styles that went against the norms of what was deemed acceptable at the time.

I do get the joke… And it’s funny.
But just for the record… Picasso was amazing.
He did this at eight years old… or maybe he’d just turned nine:

And this at about 15:

For some reason, I just can’t get into his style of art.

His parents must’ve somehow traveled to the future for a Mr. Potato Head and Etch A Sketch! Explains part of Picasso’s brilliance, perhaps?!

A person once asked Picasso why he painted such disjointed pictures. He replied “It is all logical perfectly, I pic these paintures see I as them”
