What the fuck, /ic/? Picasso is literally art for all ages, he's not fucking Norman Rockwell.

Why would you even care about the opinions of some dumb cunt who's into pollock and rothko
>>3062274
Sounds like a moron who only knows Picasso's cubism period, dodged a bullet.

>he likes to run around the house drawing cubes"

>>3062274
>not saying Ruan jia, feng zhu, Kim jung gi, Sargent, frazetta, moebius or any other /ic/ approved artist
You were asking for it lad. You coulda btfo her.
Oh and not spamming
>post your work
After she insulted you. Shoulda just kept asking to look at the bitches work. I woulda drawn a red square and told her it's a Rothko study or some shit.

rothko
Rothko is the pinnacle of what fine art is, while Pollock's actually shit. Rothko's works are very deep in so many ways, the rest of the art is pretentious tryhard wannabies' sketches, that weren't able, due to poor intelect, to leave the old primitive language of communication through details, objects, etc. while Rothko reached the level of art when he could express the very inner vision of consciousness, just like in Buddizm and many other religions, the enlightment is the presence, no words, inner dialogs or objective associations involved, it's like meditation, so pure and calm, and yet so powerfull, Rothko's paintings can relate to anyone, they just need to be on the same vibe, ready to receive the message enclosed in his paintings, which are trully portals into the misterious worlds deep in your mind and universe.
The rest of the artist are good, probably Rothko wouldn't evolve if they didn't exist, but their stuff is literally just silly cartoons for childminded people. Picasso was saying it's a blessing to draw like a child, he was so wrong, painting like any art should always evolve further and further into the unknown, reaching the limits of consciousness, and being able to carry others with them, not just the author.

Her dad was a tragic case.
>>3062274
You're both fucking retarded. Pollock is nothing and Picasso is shit. Both are horrendous. You two should just go get married since neither of you know shit anyways
>>3062393
Thank you
>>3062274
Maybe she thought you just said you were interested in art to have a common interest with her, since picasso is an artist anyone could think of when asked about an artist they like.
>>3062274
Problem?
