"Balls to Picasso" is a heavy metal album released in 1994 and is the second effort in Bruce Dickinson's solo career. The ballad "Tears of the Dragon" stayed for many months on top the of charts in countries like Brazil where Dickinson has a large fanbase.Fact|date=June 2008

This record marked the beginning of Dickinson's collaborations with Roy Z, who would work on many of Dickinson's later albums including "Accident of Birth", "The Chemical Wedding" and "Tyranny of Souls". Stylistically it departs from "Tattooed Millionaire" but is still more traditional-sounding than the follow-up album "Skunkworks" released in 1996.Fact|date=June 2008 Later, Dickinson said that he and Roy Z were talked into making the album less heavy than it should have been [ [http://www.screamforme.com/interview.htm Untitled Document ] ] .

"Balls to Picasso" was also released in DVD-Audio 5.1 mix and DualDisc (CD/DVD-Audio 5.1 mix) versions.
