The talent has moved from your actual technique to your message. How many 10-20$ words can you shove into your statement about the art.
She switched out of painting when the someone in class used pain straight from the tube (no mixing) and just made a vagina that was smoking a cigarette but then had some real good fluff backing it up.
She deeply respected the impressionists so it was rough for her. She's happy in her new medium tho.

Art is subjective. I never found Guernica aesthetically pleasing, so by your standards I could judge it as a bad painting with "some real good fluff backing it up".
Art is always about the message and the emotions it impresses on people, not raw technique. Or do you think that literature is the art of typesetting?
You're still talking about this smoking vagina, how many other pieces from this class do you mention in casual conversation? Clearly if it was meant to be a provoking piece, it worked to a certain extent.

That's why I said "talent." You don't need to play an instrument to make music anymore. You don't need to draw to make digital illustrations. You can get away with a computer, the right software, and your imagination.
I'd argue that that's still talent, if the product is any good. You don't need technical expertise, but you still need creativity.
