Creativity: “Imagine an endless and empty canvas”

How can one possibly start on talking about creativity? In my opinion there are just too many things that we can possibly think of. One can start with a vision and we can get inspiration from various artists or even everyday things we encounter. Objects and happenings in our home, in school and everywhere in our community, we see art and with this, we realize that everything can be utilized.

When we were children, we would doodle all day, sing songs we hear on the radio and mimic what we hear. Once we started growing up, we began altering the rhythm by making our own dance steps to our favorite songs and making up cheesy songs about our best friend until we make art for the sake of art and share our ideas for the sake of learning and experience. You see, creativity comes naturally. It’s just up to us if we will choose to hone and nurture such natural talent.

With one idea at a time, we can maximize our imagination and eventually invent or create something out of the ordinary that we can call our own.
