You should say

How do you know him/her?
What creative things he/she has done?
And explain why you think he or she is creative?

There have been many people I have met over the years but here I would like to talk about a particular person with fantastic creativity. I mean his creativity is fabulous. He is none other than my father.

So I am here to tell you why I think my father is creative? He always comes up with new ideas, new performances sometimes they are hilarious (extremely funny), mysterious (difficult to understand), or even serious every now and especially I was pretty much so impressed by how touching they were sometimes.

 Since my childhood, I have seen him fixing things that everyone rejects. Making new things from what is leftover. According to him, nothing is ever wasted. Its utility to achieve one thing is over now and now can be used for something else. He always does various kinds of activities he never sits idle because he thinks that an idle mind is a devil’s workshop.

Once a bed broke in our house and when everyone else was thinking of where should it be thrown my father made a beautiful desk out of the bed. I think creativity is not just about drawing things out or writing something beautiful. It is about leading a life in ways that are different from others. And on that, my father has surely led a beautiful life. He also made a lot of outstanding things from waste material.

The reason I really admire him is that when everyone is busy in the hustle and bustle of life he is the one person who has remained calm and yet achieved things without any hurdle.

Follow-ups

1.  Do you think you are a creative person?

Every person is creative. Creativity comes from the inside. I believe that I have the ability to think out of the box and experiment with things. I believe that I am willing to act in a particular capacity that makes me creative. I spend hours making my work more innovative.

2. Is it good for children to learn arts?

Art is an essential subject for children at school because it teaches them to be independent and think for themselves. Apart from this, art enhances fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and problem-solving skills which may assists children in attaining better learning outcomes.

3.  What kind of jobs require people to be creative?

I think all jobs require people to be creative because it inspires employees to work with each other. For example, an engineer needs to think of new ways to do things; the plumber needs to learn new things every day to make his work better and simpler, a carpenter needs to learn new ways of doing things that can add grace to his work, a teacher has to bring up innovative methods to teach so that children don’t get bored.

4. Do you think leaders need to have the creative ability?

Yes, leaders require the ability to look at things in new ways and solve problems by seeing things. For example, if they are not creative, people then stop following them as they would appear boring to them, but if they add creativity to their work, talk, and way they do things, they will keep having follow.
