I actually really like Picasso. I can’t afford them so I just paint copies in acrylics and then frame and hang them. I have three in my foyer. At one time I thought about doing that one to go with one called woman sleeping. But then I got into painting cats. 😆

Art is in the eye of the beholder. Go to a Jean Moreau exhibit sometime. I went to one where all his sculptures had an egg in them. One piece was a wooden crate turned upside down with a white sculpted egg sitting on top. Some people find it fascinating. 🤔

Fashion is an industry. We were sold that this was art.

Good bait isn’t always required for a big catch.

At this price level, it’s not about art or aesthetics in the least, it’s about investing.

The prolific Picasso bought utility-grade oil paint in 55 gallon drums and printed the world's very first cryptocurrency. Think of it that way.

Yes, not a good value since it can be copied.

Didn’t I read somewhere that Picasso once admitted he did not have the talent of a Velasquez, Rembrandt or Goya, but that he did what he could...........especially in deconstructing art.

“if this painting were destroyed what would the world be missing out on?”

NAFT.

I went to the Picasso museum in Japan. There was not a single object of beauty—or even interest—anywhere on the grounds.
