Merle,
Artists, yes.
Maybe one in two is self-taught, despite all teachers's exertions.
But in Zen, it is different. Ours is a Human endeavor. More Human than Art.
You, Merle, only grasp at the exceptions. Phooey.
And no doubt, Rousseau had his influences.
He may not have admitted "teachers": but that's just an ego-thing.
He looked at paintings in museums.
No rubbish.
