the most gifted ones know that their art and music is coming from a source other then their own personal abilities.

Anybody can claim their abilities are "god-given" but that doesn't make it so. If an artists ability is not a limitation, why can't everyone paint just like Rembrandt van Rijn, why can't anyone make music like Segovia, why can't we all write like Faulkner? Because everyone has unique abilities, and those abilities are both inspiring and limiting.
If you truly believe that artists are able to transcend their own abilities, what do you call this "source"?
