Somebody informed me recently that the key to every art, from writing to gardening to sculpture, is creativity. I beg to differ.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Creativity is not the property of artists alone. It's a basic element of the human character, no matter what culture you're in, no matter where you are on Earth or in history.
Of course creativity is a mystery. We don't know what drives it or what constitutes it. It's one of those things, like genius, you know it when you see it but it's impossible to define.
Creativity is how we cope with creation. While creation sometimes seems a bit un-graspable, or even pointless, creativity is always meaningful.
Creativity is not just for artists. It's for businesspeople looking for a new way to close a sale; it's for engineers trying to solve a problem; it's for parents who want their children to see the world in more than one way.
Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.
I think that everything is part of creativity - the more you create, the more you have ideas, and the more you meet people.
The nature of creativity is to make space for things to happen... We can drive it out with our busyness and plans.
Creativity is merely a plus name for regular activity. Any activity becomes creative when the doer cares about doing it right, or better.
I kind of wonder if creativity is all morphing into one big thing that's not even art, but something universal and bigger.
I've been trying to... Having been an English literary graduate, I've been trying to avoid the idea of doing art ever since. I think the idea of art kills creativity.
