The question of art vs. craft will always arise, but will the answer ever be found? Probably not, because of the high degree of subjectivity involved.
For example, we've all probably seen bonsai that were extremely well crafted but somehow lacking in the same degree of artistry. And, the other side of the coin are bonsai with obvious touches of artistry,but not all that well crafted. When one can achieve both, then a high mountain has been scaled.
Do your best and be happy.
