Summary

This quote illustrates how limitations can serve as catalysts for creativity and innovation. The speaker, possibly a character or an artist, admits to lacking the skill of drawing perspective in background (BG) illustrations. However, this limitation forced the BG artists to find alternative solutions and develop unique painting styles that effectively masked the shortcomings. Consequently, what initially seemed like a flaw became an artistic choice. The quote highlights the ability to turn weaknesses into strengths and demonstrates how constraints can inspire inventive approaches.
