Pablo Ruiz Picasso was the favorite child of his family.He was the only boy among a great many girl cousins.That was enough to make him important,but his father loved him especially,because he knew his son was going to be an artist.Pablo knew the word for pencil even before he could say Mamma and Papa.When he was small he spent hours by himself making delightful little drawings of animals and people.If his mother sent him out to play in the square,he went on drawing in the dust under the trees.One of his favorite models was his younger sister,Lola.
Don Jose Ruiz,Pablo's father,was director of the museum at Malaga in southern Spain.He earned only a small salary,but there was not much work to do and he was able to practice his hobby,which was painting pigeons.Don Jose loved pigeons very much.He painted them dead or alive,in ones and twos and in dozens.
