What’s Your Creative Type? Harness the Power of Your Artistic Personality
A lively, practical, pop-culture infused guide to achieving true creative potential by identifying the reason you create— that is, your “creative type.”
F
rom mozart to meryl streep and jackson Pollock to Jay-Z, the greatest creators don’t just have talent, they also understand their
own motivations. What’s Your Creative Type? teaches artists of all mediums, from amateurs to professionals, how to do the same in a fun and witty way. Instead of how people create, Meta Wagner explores why. Drawing on creativity theory and personality
typology, the book covers each type, from the A-lister seeking recognition to the Activist who wants to change the world. If you paint to express empathy, flip to the “Sensitive Souls” section. If you write for the sheer pleasure, you’re an Artisan. What’s Your Creative Type? is peppered with studies of famous artists, and each creative type is explained using legendary figures. With Wagner’s tips, you can get started, unblocked, or just more creatively fulfilled.
