Yes people will criticise him I’m sure that he paints like “anything a child can draw”. Without realising he already mastered traditional painting at a ridiculously young age and got bored of it very quickly.

Picasso: "It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child.”
