Description
I noticed that there are some people out there saying things like "I'll never become a good artist because I have not enough money to buy photoshop!".Excuse me?
Really, you can also become a good artist if you draw traditionally or with a free program.
You can't buy talent.
You have to keep practising to become better.
Of course, some little functions of photoshop or similar programs give your picture a nice touch, but that doesn't have to do with being a good artist. I mean, you still have to draw the actual picture first.

Yeah. I hate it when people say "Mspaint sucks". I hate it even MORE when people recommend MS Paint users another art program. Look, bitches, there are secrets MS Paint is hiding.Β

I know! MS Paint is so underrated! The only thing it doesn't really have is transparency, so that your picture or anything you highlight HAS to be a rectangle, but other than that, who can complain?

It annoys me too! Especially when people do Photoshop tutorials and we're sat at our screens with our heads on the keyboard when it says to use a certain filter or something.

That's so true mate! 
So I'm kinda the living proof that you don't need photoshop to be a good artist!
Most people don't have one of all the things I mentioned, so that's why they blame the software

I really like the part "You cant buy talent, you have to keep practising to become better."

Thank you ^___^
Practising is the key to become a good artist. Everybody who made an improvement meme or looked at some will notice that :3

I know! thats what most people don't understand. Like, "I c4nt d0 sumtin guud me d0nt h4v3 Photoshop"... Programs don't make artists. Practise, determination and hard-working does.
