I assume that you really enjoy drawing.
I further assume that you prefer being provided inspiration elements to base your drawing upon rather than having to develope it entirely on your own.

XD I don't draw. All the pretty pictures are commissioned from amazing artists.

I do write though, and I do feel the need of some form of boundaries when I write, so I tend to try to find inspiration through others. I've learned though that I don't do commissions or requests very well. I need to be able to get into the character's head to write, and trying to do that with another's character is much akin to trying to spend a month in a custom fit cat suit... That's tailored to someone else's measurements.

Wow, that's one of the finest analogies I've ever heard.

Add to the titles of which you are worthy, "Philosopher Emeritus", because you have truly proven you deserve it.
