Welcome to Android Central! Picasa represents your Google+ Photos in the cloud that are syncing with the stock Gallery app. If you want to keep them in your Google+ Photo albums, but don't want them in the stock Gallery, then go to Settings>Accounts-Google>[your Google account], and uncheck Picasa. (On some devices, it's listed as Gallery.)

Now go to Settings>Apps>All, select Gallery, and Clear Cache/Clear Data, then Force Stop. When you open Gallery again, wait a few seconds for the database to rebuild. The Picasa photos should be gone.

I looked under google+ and the photos I want gone aren't their and I did what you said and when I click under google under settings their is no picasa to click

Which device do you have? The designation of what syncs with the Gallery app can differ between devices. If you don't see Picasa, then look for Gallery, or Google Photos (not​ Google+ Photos).
