The ideal of creative inspiration seems to go against the practice of self-discipline. Listen to the hibrow Arteests, and you might believe their schmaltzy assertions that "creative integrity" trumps excellence, taste and productivity. An artist breathes creativity. Her heart beats creativity. Her brain is wired for creativity.
"I want you to create something, and I want it NOW!" is not an unreasonable demand of an artist. He'll get something, but he might not like it.
