Tabularasaness 

The quality of being new to a craft and not having learned the conventions and tropes of it, making it very easy for one to start experimenting with it without getting bogged down in the finer details as veterans of such crafts often will. Applies mostly to the arts, such as drawing and music production. Derived from the term tabula rasa, Latin for 'blank slate', representing the idea of one's mind being a blank slate ready to be populated with new information.
"I used to do art all the time, but delving into all the art meta killed all that tabularasaness that was keeping me going. Now my creative drive is running on fumes if anything at all. It's really depressing."
