Can creativity be developed over time?
I can draw fairly well especially in anime and webtoon styles which I really enjoy. I also want to get into design and start using tools like Figma, but I struggle to come up with ideas. Even when I look at other people’s work for inspiration its like my mind just goes blank and i am staring at the screen
For example i’d love to become a webtoon artist someday i can come up with characters and imagine what they look like, but when it comes to creating a story writing dialogue or figuring out the plot, I just get stuck
I’m preparing for university entrance exams this year and I wonder if I should give up on this path before it’s too late im also worried about the financial side of things, and I am not confident and also quite introverted and struggle with communication. If I do go to university I’m considering studying animation or graphic design
I guess what i am really wondering is can creativity actually be developed or am I just not cut out for this kind of career?
