I have seen all sorts of comments from learning and understanding the technical aspects of exposure, focus, and the technical sides of different techniques, even to things like the rule of thirds etc for composition.
As far as I am concerned, these all encompass the technical side,
The artistic side is how you elect to apply or not apply the technical rules. A shot can be perfect technically, sharp, well exposed etc, but can fail artistically. A shot can be artistic, while failing totally technically, if you look at the overlap between technical and artistic, there is likely a happy median where perhaps there is a 50% overlap in rules vs art. BUT I don't think you remain shot after shot consistently artistic AND interesting, if you don't know the technical side of things, because you need to value how and when to brake the some or all of the rules.
