OK, a friend asked me this and though I'm still trying to figure out an answer by myself I'd like to hear different opinions. :)
"I go to deviantart and see all these artistic people. I want to be like them and all, and O know practice is good. But am I supposed to take classes and study?
I just really wonder if I can actually paint/draw that well if I try my hardest on improving my skills. =/"
(I personally think that classes can help you immensely, but if you REALLY want to become good at art you can be a self-taught artist. I think a combination of both are what will push you towards excellence.)
