Painting and game design

Ive been painting for the last couple of days and its
been a very frustrating experience.
I'm just not able to mix something that looks like skin color, paint anything that resembles a human being or sketch a landscape in gouache.
I know that learning a craft is never easy.. but this is driving me nuts.
Oh well.. ill try harder tonight.

On the lighter side of things:
This is perfect game design.
A japanese guy made some mario levels that are hacked so that the player is able to complete the levels WITHOUT the use of a controller!
This must have been very hard testing work.
