RE: New at Steemit — Hoping to learn from the community and add value by engaging through Art
It'll take some time and growth, a bit of elbow grease. As an artist here, eventually you'll get somewhere. It's a popular tag.
I hope your friend explained voting power and Resource Credits to you. If not, when you have a moment, follow this link and you'll see some information about your account.

It's a safe link, but don't always trust links you find around here.
You'll see two bars near the top left. One is your voting power bar, the other is your Resource Credits bar. The more you vote, the lower both bars will go. Posts and comments will lower the resource credits bar further. If you completely drain the Resource Credits bar, you won't be able to vote, post, comment, etc. They do charge back up over time though, so learn to budget. As you find ways to earn money, try to build up a healthy amount of Steem Power in your wallet. That will give you more resource credits and you'll be able to post, comment, vote and all that fun stuff more often.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Even down the road, stop by my blog, say whatever needs saying. I'll try to help as best I can.
Good luck to you.
Thank you for all the information.
