Paul Klee 1879-1940
Paul was a German / Swiss painter. His parents were musicians.
Paul
knew how to play the violin and his parents let him play in the Bern
symphony orchestra. He would've liked to be a writer but painting
turned out to be his thing of focus.

Paul married Lily Stumpf. The
year? 1906. Lily was a pianist, which was good because by means of
piano lessons she was able to bring some money home.
Some success for Paul Klee in 1911,
however, when he was able to contribute some cartoon drawings for
Voltaire's
novel Candide.
