joe..you harp and you harp about the teacher...i harp back...the greatest teacher is yourself! merle
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. --Joe > Merle Lester <merlewiitpom@...> wrote: > > joe...rubbish...there are self taught artists...e.g. french artist >Rousseau......
