I should add I'm not guiltless in this. I, too, on rare occasion of course, have sought inspiration in avoidance of admitting that I suck. Thanks, gentlemen. I should add I’m not guiltless in this.

Ouch. You cut me to the quick, sir. Excellent post, though. “I think many of those who seek inspiration by injecting novelty into their lives do so in avoidance of deeper, personal impediments to greatness, most commonly avoiding admitting that they simply might suck and maybe could stand to improve some.”

If there are any barriers, they exist only in the individual's mind and it is their lack of comprehension and exploration which impedes them. I still hear truly original and incredible works created with the most "conventional" tools, it's all about how the artist interprets their usage. Enter into form, exit from form.
