Something I saw when I visited the Picasso museum a few weeks ago:
“When visiting an exhibition of children’s drawings, Picasso (according to Roland Penrose) said: ``When I was their age I could draw like Raphael, but it took me a lifetime to learn to draw like them.‘’”
Here’s Karl Rock’s video for more context and more detail about what happened:
