CREATIVITY POLLS 2 :: If PD has made you ... - Cure Parkinson's
CREATIVITY POLLS 2 :: If PD has made you more creative, how does that manifest itself (tick all that apply)?
Please select all that apply:
My something else is crafting, more specifically sewing stuffed animals!
Reading up on Parkinson's and sharing it with others.
My something else is knitting complicated patterns that I never would have tried years ago and also crocheting garments that I can wear.
The something else is that my husband has had no creativity in the last year or so because of PD. He has lost his the skill to stay interested or try anything.
i can barely move sometimes so it requires real creativity to do ordinary things. yet i sing and dance whenever i can
i am doing and repairing more around the house
Its crafting for me too. Knitting cross stich jewellry making, bath bombs you name it i do it...
I have grown to love oil painting. My family have run out of space on their walls for my work, or is it, 'Out of liking?'
My something else is quilting and beading (beading is a little challenging on some days, but enjoyable when it works.
I landscape and garden more, gross vs. fine motor skills. I can no longer do many things that require fine motor skills due to frequent tremors.
Woodworking, cabinet making, furniture, and other things. It has become almost an obsession. I sell what I can so I can buy more wood to make more. We do however keep some for ourselves.
I don't think PD made me more creative, unfortunately. I'm not so sure this is a valid pole since it assumes a conclusion? Sorry, don't mean to be a bummer.
I was always interested in being creative, and after retiring, 3 years after diagnosis have had more time. I was already painting, water colours, encaustic art, sewing , knitting, crochet, card making, but once I have an idea, I now feel compelled to carry it out, usually around 2 am!
I would also include listening to music and going to concerts and theatres
I think I covered everything in my answer to Creativity poll1.
PD is the cause of me becoming more creative!
I was nursing when I was diagnosed ten years ago and realised the time would come when I'd have to stop. I studied Fine Art part time for six years and am now a portrait artist, working from home at my own pace. It keeps me focused and on track!
