I believe that everyone has the talent to paint, draw and create with color. You just need to have the desire and will to try. We are not born great artists, it is a learned skill. You need to desire to create, whether it be with color, pencil, pottery etc.. You get the picture. This site is here for all those who have the desire to paint and create, but don't really know where or how to start.
I have been painting since I was in high school, and actually started back when I was around 5 or so. I am sure you did too, who didn't color with crayons when they were very young. Back then you were too young to think you had no talent and didn't care anyway.
I hope you find help and inspiration here at Dreams On Canvas
