"C" is a systems programming language and can not handle graphics
directly; it doesn't matter whether you are using Borland's "Turbo C"
compiler or the GNU C compiler, "gcc".  To handle graphics you need
some library (that could be written in C) that provides a C API to
manipulate the graphics.  There are such libraries available on Debian
systems, though I have not done any (programatic) graphics processing
myself.

If you want to try a higher level general purpose programming language
you could use Python and the "PIL" (Python Imaging Library) extension
which provides routines to manipulate graphics.
