Thank you for commenting on my page. I'm happy to inform you that for my artworks, I use Microsoft Paint. I know it's not the best program most artists consider, but I'm not a very wealthy person, and it's the only program I have and can afford, so it works perfect for me.
And my advice includes 3 steps...
Step 1 is to just keep practicing! If your heart longs for the need to become an artist, follow it with great passion and don't stop. You can start by looking at examples of other people's work, and take inspirations from there. Then, as you progress, you will get better and better. And sometimes the best thing to do for practice is to look back at old art to improve it.
Step 2 is to ignore everybody around you who says you can't do it. I have always been the slowest and weakest among everybody else, and for that I have always been pushed around and hurt, told I was a failure and nothing good would come from my rebellious behavior. But no matter how hard they charged at me, I always stood by my own beliefs and never took their hate for advice. And it all payed off, brought me on the path to my dreams.
Step 3 is to be creative. No artist is a professional if their work relies on their own thoughts and visuals of the world. Everybody's perspectives is different, and if you can accept that yours is perfect, then you can accomplish anything.
