The countless times I've heard an artist's paraphrase of, "I can't work under these conditions."
It was mostly students I'd hear, because it was mostly students I'd hang out with, and they'd sit, making excuses for their lack-of-art, always blaming it on their lack of good supplies.
These are the only days I wish I was better, more professional, more well known in the art world... just so I could rub it in their faces.
Better quality supplies do not equal a superior piece of art. And the most expensive graphite in the world isn't going to be any help to someone who's never held a pencil in his life.
I'm not an accomplished artist - I rarely practice, and only sketch things for my personal enjoyment, that's why it's called a hobby.
But this is my quick painting I did in food colouring.

The box of four colours cost me about two dollars fifty.
