Pablo Picasso with gouache made with Caran d'Ache wax oil pastels and water color. Pablo Picasso always liked surprises and in his work he encouraged unpredictable outcomes. La Californie, Cannes 1961.
In his studio at Villa La Californie in Cannes, 1961, Pablo Picasso fixes the camera with an intense gaze. Dressed in a white button-down shirt, he holds up a colorful gouache depicting a stylized vase with three white flowers. The work was created using Caran d'Ache wax oil pastels and watercolor, a medium well-suited to the artist’s famous penchant for encouraging unpredictable outcomes. The high-ceilinged room is filled with canvases, easels, and the typical clutter of a busy artist's workspace.
