Originality is underpriced!

I recently learned if you are not making a connection to your art "authenticity" is missing.  Once a piece is finished there should be a connection between artist and viewer where interpretation has no bounds.  An element of truth in your work is based upon the authenticity of your voice as an artist.  Art made with substance takes on a meaningful relationship in the mind of the viewer.  The canvas is a platform in which you have the attention of the world, chose your words carefully.  If you don't love your art people in general will not like your art.  The connection initially should be so strong you are hesitant to give your work away!  As an artist what are you really trying to say compared to what you think people want to hear.
