I beg to differ-------------to be creative sometimes you need a mathematical mind. I can draw my own patterns------because I can do the math.
but I do know what you mean.
I agree CrannieAnnie as I taught math for years and am still creative. But I much preferred teaching Sciences - more fun and our project were very creative.
Maybe I think that way because my dad had a very mathematical mind and was an engineering type. He had very little artistic creativity. I did not do well in math but can do geometric things - just don't ask me to explain it mathematically.
My husband is an engineer and can be creative and quite resourceful. But I have noticed that he's much more creative if he's working on a project that HE thinks of doing, than when he's working on a project that I ask him to do.
