What is a mediocre painter?

"A mediocre painter is one who has most certainly, either has had a passion to paint by birth as a natural characteristic, or developed out of sheer interest in art, but has either carelessly, or boldly proceeded to make art, with either scant respect, or negligence on their part, to sufficiently master the required basics or fundamental aspects, that art demands as a subject matter."
