Pablo Picasso is in my opinion one of the most important figure of 20th century, in terms of art, and art movements that where present over this period. Before the age of 50, the Spanish born artist had become the most well known name in modern art, with the most distinct style. There was no other artists, prior to Picasso, who had such an impact on the art world, or had a mass following of fans as he did. I personally love his cubist style, how Picasso uses shapes to create objects and figures, one of my favorites would have to be ‘Femme au Chapeau’ a a painting filled with colour and shapes. When i first started the year Picasso really inspired some of my work in the way that I was excited by his uses of colour and technique and wanted to express myself using colour.
