What does the cryptic crossword clue "Artist’s photo like that will do (7)" mean?

The definition is "Artist". The wordplay uses a charade (building blocks). PIC (synonym="short for picture = photo") + AS (synonym="like, as in “white as snow”") + SO (synonym="that will do = an expression indicating assent") = PICASSO; definition: "Artist's" The answer is PICASSO.
