.....Comes as no surprise you say??
Qouted from same article:--[no surprise to me]
".........as the same study suggested that they have personality traits in common with those with mental illnesses such as schizophrenia. "

Dr Nettle also suggested that artists could be experiencing the positive side of schizophrenic tendencies. He added: "This research shows there are positive reasons, such as their role in mate attraction and species survival, for why these characteristics are still around."

But that was one of two key reasons for the report's findings. The other reason:

"Creative people are often considered to be very attractive and get lots of attention as a result," Dr Nettle said. "They tend to be charismatic and produce art and poetry that grabs people's interest.

"It could also be that very creative types lead a bohemian lifestyle and tend to act on more sexual impulses and opportunities, often purely for experience's sake, than the average person would. Moreover, it's common to find that this sexual behaviour is tolerated in creative people."

Hmmmmm! It is a good thing I'm not more creative than I am!

You're plenty creative, Natalie, and equally sexy too! But yes, all things in moderation.

We'll see how creative I still am when I move into a house with room for a studio. I am really looking forward to the move (if we get approved to move in!)

Good luck in your new digs!
