The Life of Pablo Picasso! Kanye West gets creative with a Sharpie pen as he sketches fan's portrait at JFK airport

An eager fan got a little more than she bargained for on Saturday when she asked Kanye West for his autograph.

The rapper was making his way through JFK Airport in New York when the young woman requested his signature on a photograph of the Life of Pablo hitmaker performing.

But instead of just scribbling his name, the 38-year-old took the sharpie pen and sketched a quick portrait of his fan.

The Jesus Walks rapper and fashion designer doodled a vague likeness of the girl peering over his shoulder on the picture.

Kanye kept slowly walking as he sketched but paused for a moment to study his subject.

For the finishing touch he scrawled his signature underneath.

The star was in great spirits and beamed a huge smile as he made his way through the terminal after landing in New York on his way to Paris Fashion Week.

He was in such a good mood in fact that he posed for some photos with fans before hopping in his car. 

Wrapped up for the cold weather, he wore a Yeezus hooded sweater with jeans and a thick winter jacket along with a grey beanie.  

It's not the first time Kanye has shown off his talents with a sharpie pen. 

During a sit down interview with his mother-in-law-to-be Kris Jenner in 2013, Kanye admitted he used to doodle on the Kardashian family Christmas portraits to add himself into the photos.

It was long before he started dating reality star Kim Kardashian and had set his sights on making her his girlfriend.

On an image of the family's 2010 Christmas card, the rapper drew a stick figure with a black marker, slotting it between his crush Kim and her sister Kylie Jenner. 

'He would take the photo when he saw it online and would Photoshop himself into the card and then share it with Kim,' Kris gushed to her audience on her ill-fated chat show.
