28,835 days—that’s the number of days in 79 years. That’s the number of years that Picasso created works of art.

He created over 50,000 works of art in his lifetime! That’s two a day, every single day, seven days a week, 365 days a year for 79 years. That’s incredible.

That’s prolific, and out of that he has created a ton of masterpieces. Certainly not all of the works he created were masterpieces.

Yet, we look to artists who are very well known and have created what we consider to now be masterpieces and we think, “How could I ever create a masterpiece?”

We think that we need to be perfect and we need to make something incredible every time, but that’s not where masterpieces come from.
