I'm not sure I agree with the above quote. I see no point in mixing creativity with something you have to hide. I think things or art people create are ultimitely a mixture of both forces that come from within as well as influences that surround the individual. I heard an artist say a long time ago that they had to separate themselves from other artists they strongly were drawn to in order to avoid being too heavily influenced by their work. I agree with this wholeheartedly.
