He showed him how to use oil painting.
When he was 9 years old he painted a
man on a horse in a bullfight

4. His father took him to Madrid to visit
the most important museum in Spain:
El Prado.
He liked paintings of Goya or Velazquez
La maja vestida Las Meninas

5. He lived in A Coruña and Barcelona
where he studied Art.
He was a very good painter

6. He had a friend called Carlos. Pablo and Carlos
decided to go Paris. They lived there but they did not
have any money. He even burnt his painting because
he was very cold.
One day his friend Carlos died and Pablo started painting in blue colour

7. He started feeling happy and he painted in
bright colours again: pink, red...

8. He invented a new way of painting: CUBISM
He painted things from different angles
