Is Art Creative?
Tuesday. 8.19.08 10:04 pm
I was finishing the pictures of dogs from Dog Days and I suddenly got to thinking about something I've been running around in my head for sometime. That is: is Art entirely a creative exercise? Creativity is a product of enginuity and inventiveness, qualities which I don't find myself to be devoid of, but qualities that I wonder if they are integrally linked or if one can work independently from the other. Do my drawings of my dogs necessarily require creativity or are they simply a function of good observational skill. What skills does creativity control?

Creativity is an interesting quality. Do you feel that you are a creative person? Do you feel that creativity can exist outside of artistic talent? Do you think artistic talent and creativity are connected at all? Share your thoughts.

I believe there's a difference between simply painting what is there and creating something that isn't actually there. I suppose, having said that, that there are different levels of creativity depending on the art style. Wouldn't you think?

It's the same as the nonfiction genre of writing; you still need skill to write it, but it's simply the truth, so it doesn't take as much.

hmmm... i think tony buzan, the father of mindmap, explained about this before.

I'm creative to a certain extent but often my ideas are variations of a theme, it seems to me.

I think creativity and artistic talent can be connected, but don't necessarily have to be. Or rather, you can be creative but not have artistic talent. I'm not so sure it would work the other way around.
