I once was looking at a famous designer's quilt and noticed how sloppy it was technique-wise. That did suggest to me the idea that super-creative people (i.e., artists) are more focused on vision than technique; but I would guess there must also be artists who are no less creative and, at the same time, practice meticulous technique. Maybe it's simply a case of some people being more detail-oriented than others within the creative spectrum. I have also frequently come across the idea that creative people work in messy spaces; I'm not sure how true that is, either. I imagine there must be some brilliant artists whose work spaces are pristine?
