Mr. Picassohead

(Note: this WOW's a re-post to commemorate the Picasso exhibit currently at the VMFA!)

Have you ever looked at Pablo Picasso's more abstract work and thought to yourself, "Hey, I could do that"? Well now you have your chance: Mr. Picassohead is a fun online application that lets you create Picasso-style portraits. Just drag and drop the features onto the canvas, and use the tools at the bottom to make the marks on the canvas shrink or grow, rotate or change color. See if you can make a picture of yourself! When you are done, you can save your work to the website's gallery, and even forward the painting to an email address. You can also browse the gallery to see what kind of pictures other people have come up with. Mr. Picassohead is perfect for people who might consider playing with a potato too frivolous.
