Break it down….
• Inspired by Cezanne, but founded and lead by Picasso and Braque … “nothing but little cubes” . Started with Picasso’s “Les Desmoiselle d’Avignon”
• Subject varied, but color palette was limited to neutrals. ( Though Picasso broke a part and create his signature style that contained many colors)
• ANALYTICAL analyzing form of objects by shattering them into fragments spread out on the canvas

Picasso
• Learned to draw before he could walk- he was first an Academia artist.
• “ It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to draw like a child”
• Different periods of his life influenced his art, until he changed art history with one painting ( the same painting the start of Cubism)
• “I paint what I know, not what I see”– inspired by Cezanne geometric patterns ( mountain side landscapes)
