Picasso's round women

Here's the one that was on the wall where I worked. It's obviously a woman who's supposed to be masterbating. I think it has a nice flowing quality to it in that it reminds me of a drawing I did when I was on acid once! It's called The Dream.

And then there's this one that I like a lot more than that one that appeared in my book of surrealist painters. It's called Nude Woman In a Red Armchair. I like the blue roundness of it and again, somehow that pensive expression on her face reminds me of being on acid I can't describe it!

How the hell did you learn to post pictures. I gotta learn that trick. I love it. I love the post Marky.

I love that post too, Mark.

For my birthday (early present. I'm lucky.) My brother gave me Matisse Picasso: The Story of the Their Rivalry and Friendship by Jack Flam.

I read books like this like a grasshopper. Anyway flipping through it, and looky, looky:

The Dream is an extraordinarily lush and sensual painting that capitalizes on a number of works Matisse created during his Nice period. The subject of the languorous woman, the use of the rhythmic wallpaper pattern, and the rich sensual colors of this painting clearly refer to Matisse's paintings of the late 1920's.

That picture was on the wall where you worked? A woman with a penis on her mind masturbating.

Call me a prude but I think that's a bit distracting.

Oh yeah, and Mc, six year olds can post pictures. All you have to do is read the instructions and have a rudimentary grasp of XML.

I can never get over the fact that Maky used to work in a brothel.
