Well said, Linda,
that's excactly the way to think, this has become my "excuse" and way of making peace with art history.
I don't believe that good art can derive from anywhere else than your own heart.
One can learn from others but it's the personal touch that makes it art.
If this topic is still about - daring to enter and participate on the forum - I'd say, that's the attitude
