Picasso loved to paint people.

He painted them in happy times and in sad times.

He rearranged them and changed them, but you could still tell who was in the picture.
There are people with...

  • Their chins and noses in the wrong place
  • Hats
  • Ice cream
  • Tears
  • Animal heads
  • Animal bodies

..and many more
