No problem and yeah Bierstadt is fantastic. As for landscape painters with a specific cool/blues and greens type palette I'm not sure. Sorolla is my go to guy for colour though he has a lot of the smaller paintings focused on figure too. If you look through his landscape paintings though, especially ones by the sea, the blues and greens he uses are fantastic, link related.

Dimitri Anatolyevich Belyukin is yet another Russian landscape painter who's really good, and he uses a lot more of the blues, though mostly from reflected skylight in the shadows, so they're not as deep as Bierstadt's ones, not sure if it's what you're looking for, pic related. If I come across any other guys with those kind of colours then I'll post them in the thread.

Also yeah I know what you mean with the guilty feelings thing. Imagination work is important, but I do the opposite to you, maybe because of a time in school where the art teacher tore up a stack of my imagination drawings and shouted at me in front of the class. Ever since then I feel like drawing from imagination is kinda slacking off and I'm not learning everything and get fidgety until I study something from life or ref too.
