I   put that badly. A keen and focused "eye" might be ready to say sincerely 
of nearly any painting that "only this painter could have produced it". Thus 
are forgers detected. 

A better idea of what I had in mind might be expressed this way. Not only 
does her work delight, but it feels so original it doesn't even REMIND me of 
anyone. Obviously Stella learned from, and was once influenced by, earlier 
artists, but wherever she "came from", she has cometed into a stylistic 
"beyond" that 
very few artists in any genre reach (while still remaining cherishable).
