When someone is beginning to seriously undertake the study of drawing and painting, "originality" is not particularly emphasized during the learning of basic techniques.
Indeed, as one atelier director writes in his brochure, speaking of required studies in charcoal drawing and black-and-white painting of plaster cast models, "[t]his cast work is not creative and is not meant to be, except in the sense that the student finds ways to master the problems of shape, value, and form." (italics mine)
