Oh I do believe he thought that!

He had this style of portrait he liked to do of women and their distorted faces. It seems so surreal and imaginative, but in a way, it’s not at all. Picasso painted exactly what he saw in bed with these women. Close up he saw double images of their face from two angles, a bit grotesque if you think about it, but then sex is a bit grotesque as well;)

Where can I read more about this theory that Picasso's two-angle distorted portraits are somehow connected to what he saw during sex? Did you make this up, or is this interpretation discussed elsewhere?

I believe I read it on one of those little plaques describing the painting in a museum. I suppose everything was made up by someone though, including the time when Picasso made up these paintings.
