An artist don't always want something well produced. When you have an image on your head, you'll try to get the most closing thing to that image. An artist wants that thing. That's why we often see artists being so depressed, because that image of their head is a bit off. It might only be 1% off with his mind picture, but it's not what he wants. Being well produced doesn't mean it's excellent, it just mean that it had a very good production. The feel of the mindset projection can be lost trough production. I've seen many artists going away from the place they know to the mountains, lake houses, even Buddhists temples and even countries on Africa, who are at war, to have a different perspective of the world. And then, we see the most sloppy, ancient and even bad technique used in works, but the beauty they represent is more than any highest production values.
