Creativity is the act of bringing about something new — whether it is an idea, a work of art, a solution to a problem, or a useful tool. Creativity also refers to the inner process of generating ideas and novel ways of looking at the world. Although creativity has been a somewhat elusive subject for scientific research, it has generally been found to be associated with playfulness, openness, and a willingness to temporarily let go of critical, analytical thinking.

Inspiration hits you, you have a vision, you see a scene on the street that you just have to capture right now and a photo just won't do. Why don't you just reach for your iPhone? The iPhone app "Brushes" may be just what we need when creativity/painting muse hits us.
