Picasso... had a hard life...

>18 - boring
>90 - still boring

What you are looking at is someone realizing that painting art is hard and time consuming. Then they did something about it.

Does any one have that picture of some one posting 'evolution of an artist with dementia' as a reply to some tumblr artists style evolution post?

he was born in an era where the audience he was working for couldt give less than a fuck about realism. Hes style is quite unique anyways, youre just a sour cunt that thinks that the less hyper realistic the artist is the more brain damaged he is

>>4059364
the regression is real

>"psychedelic" art
>dude the artist was high when he drew this lmao

>>4059364
Picasso is the first to admit his art is shit.

>>4059375
This is kinda of scary

>>4059404
this is probably just as phony as Picasso

>>4059364
Picasso is the most overrated artist in history.

>>4059375
Ah, the backstory to this one makes me sad.

>>4059513
It's like that guy who usted to love draw cats, then got mentally i'll and just drew horrible fractal shit, forgot his name though.

>>4059364
He just realized that nobody cares if you can draw well and decided to actually do something that won't make him forgotten in 5 years

>>4059375
fucking hell, Growing up is painful

drugs and mental illness have a lot of mimicry

Yeah that one, thanks anon!

Don't do cubism, kids

>>4059375
I wish there would be brainscans as reference, to see why exactly his paintings changed the way they did.

>>4059375
I call bullshit, 1996 and 2000 compared to 1967 could be considered signs of diminishing drawing abilities, all the rest look like obvious attempts to abstraction, 1999 looks like abstraction taken to the extreme, but that's it

If you want to document how bad your drawing skills get after your brain turns to mushes, stick to realism

he slowly gained access to the akashic records

you won't understand

you will never understand

No you spergy retard. "Bro thats so weird you mustve been high lol hahah."

>>4059659
4th one is my fave desu

>>4059375
My dad has dementia, this makes me sad. He’s losing who he was. I just want my dad back :(

>>4059364
He painted this at age 15. He was better than most to have ever done it, so he decided to move outside of the conventions of the medium.

>>4059365
If you consider dropping an army of bastards on the Paris art socialite scene hard, sure.

>>4060362
Dude it’s ugly on purpose lmao

>>4059659
the first two look like what an 18 year female instagram artist would draw. this guy was really ahead of his time.

>>4059659
It’s pretty unnerving to look at his really abstract pieces. It’s almost impossible to tell what part of it is influenced by cats.

>>4059364
No. He simply gained the skill, grew bored with it and went his own direction to create something original.

Perfect example of knowing the rules in order to break them.

>>4059367
You must feel really bad about your art then

>>4059659
toxoplasma gondii will fuck your shut up, dawg.

>>4061092
Except he doesn't demonstrate any knowledge of the rules and therefore didnt need to know them in the first place.

>>4059659
Misleading because of those scary fractals are actually done before went off the deep end. However the narrative of the tragedy of metal illness taking its toll on an artist is still real.

>>4061828
some of those*
Not to say that some of his art didn't turn into... whatever that mixture of scary and pretty is towards the end.

>>4060020
>If you want to document how bad your drawing skills...
Thats clearly not the point of that pic

>>4059364
If you call pedophilia a drug

This was also Picasso's pathetic attempt at drawing a portrait in his time.
This piece is literally /beg/ tier.
Picasso was never a good artist compared to professionals of his time. Compare his work to an pre-raphaelite and see how terrible it is.
I'm not /pol/ but Hitler and Picasso were at roughly the same talent level before, you know. And Hitler is widely agreed to be a mediocre artist. Why Picasso isn't, I have no idea.

I'm getting a really haunting vibe off of some of this stuff..
I'm suffering with a variety of mental health problems and even now I'm beginning to notice a pattern of fractal work appearing in my sketchbooks and any depictions of people and things holding a lot of uneasy weight to them.
Hell, even looking back at my time in high school and early college my art was still looking ok, and I was able to cope with all the stimuli.

Now I feel deranged. Trust being abused by former friends, a family that refuses to understand and learn about the world with me and adulthood making me realise why hell exists. Im starting to look and sound more autistic than I used to even in photos and videos with family and I'm only in my mid 20s.

I'm scared.

>>4059364
>Can make really good works
>Makes a bunch of horseshit which now fills up modern art museums

Why don't you all listen to virtuoso classical jazz exclusively? clearly it's the most technically challenging music. that's all you people care about, right? you don't appreciate raw expression, experimenting, exploration of genres and styles.

no. you listen to classic rock, or (blech) anime music. probably video game sound tracks and vaporwave, doomercore and 60s sunshine pop. those are the equivalent of sakimichan or late picasso or calarts in the music world. Get your heads out of your asses, shitting on everything that isnt your close-minded view of technical skill doesnt make you more sophisticated or better at drawing it does exactly the opposite. rigidity is the bane of a good artist and is the reason you're here while other artists go balls deep in style and get thousands of dollars each month. bunch of sour grapes loser teens

There's a common theory that I think is most likely right.

Picasso's father was a famous and skilled artist, and picasso worked under him as an apprentice. Apparently his father really wanted him to be a renowned artist and it's speculated that his father helped him with his early works. Around the time he goes off on his own, his work starts to become what he's known for, and progresses to more and more bizarre and deconstructed forms from that point on.

The theory goes that he realized people were interested in why he was drawing shitty, and rather than questioning his ability, wondered if it was some kind of artistic progression. He went with it and made it more and more bizarre as time went on, generating more and more interest. This was how he would fulfill his father's wishes for him to be a famous artist. Basically he was never skilled, and his early work was only decent because his father advised and helped him with them. Which was very common in earlier years, for multiple people to work on pieces and put one artist's name on them. Usually whoever was considered the 'master' in their studio group, but in this case why not in reverse, if the man wanted his song to be as famous as he was?

I think it's probably the truth. I can't see anyone developing the skills picasso supposedly had and not wanting to take them further, but to instead regress to childlike drawings. We'll never know for sure.

Maybe not so common after all. I can't find the source for what i wrote here. I'm sure it's out there somewhere, I came across it by searching for picasso related things about a year ago.
