The pieces were on loan from the Musee National Picasso in Paris and were only going to be in San Francisco for a few more days. It was storming and it took us 2 1\/2 hours to get there but we were determined to see it before it left.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/kjerstiwoods.com\/pad\/picasso1.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\nThere were over 150 paintings, sculptures, drawings and prints. Many of these were from his own home which was later converted into a museum. We decided to get the audio tour so we could learn more about the artwork and the life of Picasso. Faith (age 7) listened to the audio for about thirty seconds, handed me back the earphones, and said she was ready to go home!<br \/>\nThe artwork was displayed by period (the blue period, rose period, cubism, crazy weird art period, etc). My favorite piece was a portrait that he painted of his wife Olga in 1918. Elyse (age 11) loved the vivid colors in The Portrait of Cora Maar (which I believe was one of his mistresses) and Faith loved &#8220;Standing Nude&#8221; because A KID DREW THAT ONE!!!<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/kjerstiwoods.com\/pad\/picasso5.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\nAt one point the audio tour got kind of racy and it talked about all of the women in Picasso&#8217;s life and they way he drew their body parts. He was a total sleeze and had numerous affairs! I made the kids take off their earphones and we played the game &#8220;rename the art title&#8221;. Here are a few we came up with:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/kjerstiwoods.com\/pad\/picasso6.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\nAfter a few hours Faith finally got her wish and the tour was over! The rest of the kids absolutely loved it and are still talking about what a wonderful time they had. Here&#8217;s a pic of my mom with the kids.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/kjerstiwoods.com\/pad\/picasso3.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\nI doubt the kids and I will make it to Paris anytime soon so it was nice we were able to see the exhibit in San Francisco. I only have one thing left to say&#8230;..PICASSO&#8230;THE BOOBS GO IN THE FRONT.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/kjerstiwoods.com\/pad\/picasso7.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\nI&#8217;m off to scrap my memories&#8230;&#8230;Love, Kjersti<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My mom and I decided to take my girls and my nephews to the de Young Museum to see the Picasso exhibit.
