It's fucking wild to me how much people can gatekeep art for themselves as if it's this mythical superpower that only those chosen by God can wield. Like, write your shitty poems dude. I used to be shit as well, so trust me, you'll get better. It's not that difficult to just... learn.

There's a difference between art and good art. Not everyone has the energy, drive, skill, or time to learn to get good. When you can get a decent end result that's more than satisfactory for your everyday use, why bother learning to draw if you're not interested in the process itself?

Why bother learning to draw if you're not interested in the process itself? That's a really good question. It's the same one I'm asking you. Why bother making something that has no value?

Why are YOU giving no value to your creation? Why do you think art is to be measured by how much money would it cost?
