Hols over...

I am too lazy to put up a post about my vacation with my family in Spain and Lake district... there's just far too many pictures (thanks to my bro)... I kinda dumped most of it on facebook :P

Conclusion:
I love Barcelona!
I now am a fan of Pablo Picasso (i visited museo d' picasso)... His eccentric variety of techniques, especially his distortion of Velazquez's Las Meninas, thanks to the cubism technique he suddenly became obsessed with (which is kinda my favourite painting for some unknown reason)..
Have a wee look ;) ......

The original Las meninas by Velazquez (which means the maids of honour in spanish)
Here u see a little girl, Infanta Margarita, surrounded by her entourage of maids of honour, chaperone, bodyguard, two dwarfs and a dog. Just behind them, Velázquez portrays himself working at a large canvas. Note all these characters.....!
Here's wat the princess Infanta Margarita looks like thanks to Picasso... (no one dared to say: erm...pablo... her eyes are not the same size ... :P)
Here is Picasso's other version (there's alot!)... i just love his versions of the Dog :P

wait.. there's more...the dog is just hilarious~~~~!!!

and wait... more...Looks like wat my little cousin can draw... :DLook at the dog!!!!! heehee... and the Princess' small head!

For once, I actually enjoyed art museums :P Picasso really has varied styles... and some of his sketches and paintings are just weird... which is why i am now a fan!

Well.. its back to classes for me... starting to like obs and gynae :)
