pumeco we know you have talent but
since when has talent been a prerequisite to be a filthy rich Artist ? for reference Pablo Picasso.
get some rectangles and cylinders and get a rock block texture and ya have a castle
or some dental floss for a Roxie bikini

What makes you say that Picasso didn't have talent? Is it that you simply don't like the style of his most famous paintings? Is it because you have the typical person's preference for "realistic" art? Is it that you think he couldn't paint like any other painter? If it's the last one, you're mistaken. He was a prodigy who was selling and exhibiting paintings at age 15.
He was completely capable of painting like the old masters. But eventually chose not to. Why paint like everyone else? Where is the innovation in copying a style that reached its pinnacle 400 years earlier?
Here's a link to his early work:

He was 12 when he painted this.
And 14 when he did this one
No, you don't get to produce the most valuable collection in art history by lacking talent. He had talent to excess. No one who has studied art history for five minutes thinks he lacked talent.
