Oh yeah. He just created art as he saw fit. If Picasso thought blue should be the color, blue it was. No one questions why. If he decides a woman’s right eye should be twice as large as her left, that’s okay too. When he thought a nostril of a goat would be a good match for the woman’s face, people went crazy throwing hundreds of millions of dollars at the painting.
I’d guess that Picasso rarely had to deal with usability, commercial feasibility, cultural compatibility, revisions, or approvals from fifteen different people at fifteen different times. Those things are what lowly graphic designers like us worry about. Because um…, we’re not Picasso. =)
Picasso had it easy
