Connection: Magritte and Creativity

In class, we learned about the different types of creative personalities. Even thought all the aspects of personality that were being mentioned was important to have, I thought the fourth statement was most important to have as a creative person. It states the idea that creative people are both in the world of imagination, fantasy, and reality. When I was reading section of paragraph, one of my most influential artist came up to my mind. Magritte, who is known for surrealism, could connect to this section. Those relate to each other since Magritte is sort of the artist who lives in his imagination. He thinks very differently from others. Magritte's paintings stand out to the audience because his paintings go beyond what artists thought back in his days. They inform each other since creative means understanding imagination and reality. Artists need to go beyond what normal people thinks, otherwise they can not create anything new. However, they also need to be informed about their reality and the things happening around them. Magritte's surrealistic paintings always influenced me. His works are so creative, it becomes more interesting every time I review his works.
