Inspired by a post on This Young House, I decided to take an online quiz that tells you what your creative type is. I was curious and wanted to see if it could shed some light on breaking free of this creative block I seem to have. Check this out:

About Me:
You have a great appreciation for creativity in all its forms. You really admire talented artists and will always find time to seek out a new exhibition or show. When it comes to your own creativity, you take inspiration and ideas from the world around you. Your eyes are always open for new sources of information. You like to see creativity as something that is free, without boundaries and rules – you’re a rebel at heart!
How I Create:
You like to embrace new thinking and techniques. Technology can help you create work that really has an impact. It’s all about form; man-made just can’t beat the beauty of nature. You’re the type who thinks best in the wilderness. Your strength lies in your unique perspective, meaning you have the eye for taking something old and turning it round to offer something fresh and new.
How I Think:
Deep down, you have a playful spirit and take pride in putting your own original spin on things. Your creativity is fresh and honest… the ever-present childlike element of your character shines through.
So…
All of that sounds pretty accurate to me, though I wonder how accurate it would be if I chose different elements. But what I get out of that is that, to fully open up my creative side, I need to get out more. I need to stop and smell the roses, so to speak. If I didn’t need to get so darn early (it’s no secret that I’m not a fan of mornings) to go to work so that I could pay the bills, I might be able to do just that. So long story short, in order to unleash my creativity I need to be independently wealthy with few to no obligations on my time.
Isn’t that always the way?
