Here is a video of a disabled artist drawing with their mouth:

Final Result:

Please do not insult disabled artists like that.

I am going to try to say this as polite as possible. You should never compare people's disabilities, especially in an attempt to invalidate them. No one has insulted disabled artists, however you are being offensive. I see you have been led astray by the second person, but this is just ... off-putting. Yes there are people in wheelchairs who can work, and those who can't. The first group does not make the second group lazy. Some disabled people will have certain activities they cannot do and no amount of individual practice/hard work/effort will change it. Being a member of a group does not exclude them from being offensive (women can be misogynists, etc.). The second person is literally using their status as a disabled person to put down other disabled people, I mean wtf.

Society thinks everyone is able-bodied. Until a machine is made so I can draw directly with my mind, creating art is a pipe dream. I need something that doesn't require any type of force, so no pencils, pens, mice, etc. I always associate the word "accessible" with disabled people so this meme was funny to me.

I mean, pen plotters allow you to draw anything even if you can only type and they are definitely used to make some beautiful art. And if you can't afford that, you can probably create algorithmic art on the device you are reading this comment from!

Thanks for the suggestion, but after looking into this it would not work out for my disabilities.
