Portrait of Paulo, the Artist’s Son, Pablo Picasso, 1923 (Photo credit: Wikipaintings)

Pablo Picasso (25 October 1881 – 8 April 1973)

Yesterday, searching through works by Picasso, I found this portrait.  I went looking for it today and could not find it until I watched a short video by Philip Scott Johnson.

I therefore looked at several works by Picasso.  Many show distortions and metamorphoses.

The video is very revealing.  It is like a key to a mystery.

This is such a short post.  I apologize.

Jacques-André Portail

This painting has long been my favourite.  When I paint, I want to paint a Portail.

It is a watercolour painting, over traces of graphite, and is housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, in New York.  It is also featured on the internet with other works by Jacques-André Portail (1695-1759).

After writing my blog this morning, I had a malaise.  So let this painting be my post for the day.

Allow me to wish you a lovely weekend.

Here is the gift of music: Adagio, by Chopin.
