The world is full of mediocre unremarkable artists, musicians, sculptors, etc.
How can you even hope to make something that's worth more than a couple seconds of people's attention if you aren't a gifted individual?
It's even worse now that AI can generate pieces that absolutely mog unremarkable artists effortlessly.
 
Collagejaks mog soyjaks. (Slopjaks also count.)

Natural talent isn't real, you can be shit at something and get progressively good at it the more you do it. This is known commonly as skill.
When someone says that they lack natural talent, it means that they are not improving in their skill as fast as they would have liked to. They're frustrated.
Tails gets trolled is a series that looks god awful, but it has had a lasting impact on the internet.

I don't even understand this autism.
 
I’ll try drawing for a year and see if I improve at all.
I’m not going to waste decades for slight improvements.

I think it would be easier for me if I do it digitally, pen and paper has weaknesses like not always being consistent and if you make a mistake you can’t undo it.
If you're learning just now and aren't that motivated it would've been better to start on paper, idk
Digital adds a layer of clumsiness to it
