Artist I see talking in broadcast soaps (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

picasso

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'artist' is the definition.
(Picasso is an example)

'i see talking in broadcast soaps' is the wordplay.
'see talking' becomes 'c' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'broadcast' indicates an anagram (letters scattered or cast around).
'i'+'c'='ic'
'soaps' is an anagram of 'passo'.
'ic' placed within 'passo' is 'PICASSO'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for picasso that I've seen before include "Spanish artist, 1881-1973" , "Pablo . . . . . . ., great Spanish artist of 20th century" , "Pablo -, Spanish painter/sculptor" , "Spanish artist who emigrated to France, d. 1973" , "20th century painter" .)
