We all start somewhere. Why do we humans have such a tiresome need to "classify" everything? If there were not "hobbiests" then who would buy our rejects at the club auctions?
I would love to be able to afford high quality stock and I feel almost comfortable that I would not kill it but then again I might! One of our club members payed $50 for a tree that died and got his butt chewed by his wife right at our club dinner (she did not know how much he paid)! It is all relative to who you are and where you are in life. Some may see great material, to others that is diapers, shocks, food on the table an oil change etc. Who is a better artist, one who buys someone elses art or one who creates art from scratch?
From an aspiring artist on a limited budget! It is not an excuse if you really don't have the money
