Creativity and problem solving

I feel that creativity is very important during problem solving or in face of a crisis. During such circumstances, people are required to think of various ways to achieve their goals and solve their problems. Problems often comes with constrains and restrictions. People need to think around such restrictions with creative thinking. Artists might face problems creating an art piece as they might not have the right tools or equipment and they might not have the funds to purchase such equipments. Hence they would have to think of ways of overcoming the problem, either by creating a make shift tool or using another technique to create the same effect. The artist would need to think of a cost effective way and that takes creativity and thinking out of the box.
