We all evolve as artists but Picasso's self-portraits are fascinating to watch change over time.

This is a new-to-me blog by artist Roxanne Coble.  I really like her stuff.  Lots of art journaling and book making and paint!

  • Loved seeing Picasso’s self portraits up to 90 years old. So interesting. Thanks so much for it all! Have a great time in Australia. On my bucket list of places to visit.

  • Thank you for Roxanne’s link!
    I am only just learning to release my creativity. One thing I find hard is coming up with ideas – I’ve been told for so long I have no creative spark, so nothing comes to mind. Roxanne’s work is wonderful and has opened a door; I rushed through and picked up my pencil and started drawing. I’ve learned a huge lesson recently, slavishly trying to recreate someone else’s style is doomed to failure – bouncing off and finding my own style is the way to go!!
    And they say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks! Ha! at 64 1/2 I’m learning new things all the time – and my heart is singing 🙂

  • Cool links! I am especially intrigued by Picasso’s evolution. I mistakenly assumed the first one featured was the work of Frank Duveneck, a artist from my city of Cincinnati, OH. Fascinating. Just shows that a true creative mind is always trying something new.
