Each of us have some degree of creativity, some just happen to have a broader streak than others. The beauty is when a creative soul finds a career that allows him to make the best of his strongest abilities. Graphic artists, writers and fashion designers come to mind. But what are some of the other fields that attract our right brain counterparts? A. Harrison Barnes, fellow creative soul and Hound.com founder, says the possibilities are endless and it’s about following your passion. Keep reading for some of the best career opportunities that allow you to flex your creative side.

Interior Decorating is perhaps one of the first choices for those who dream in shades of purple penelope and vixen violet. This is the ultimate career for many creative folks just because of the wide latitude and creative license their clients usually allow. A degree gets your career started, says A. Harrison Barnes, and from there, it’s about building your name and ultimately your brand. You’ll need to gear up for several years of “paying your dues” before you really begin earning well, but it’s a sacrifice worth making.

Wedding Planner – Granted, a bride and groom usually already have an image of how they want their wedding to unfold, but a wedding planner is the one who brings it to life. Your best bet is to intern with an already established wedding planner before tackling a project on your own. Many encourage new wedding planners to work for an already established company before striking out solo.

Cosmetologist – There’s nothing more satisfying than taking an exhausted mother of three little ones under the age of five and transforming her into a spectacular beauty queen. Cosmetologists make this happen on a daily basis. Check with your state licensing board for the compliance issues. Each state varies in its regulations, but a cosmetology career is very rewarding for a creative mind.

Landscaper – This presents the opportunity for a love of the outdoors and an appreciation for a well constructed and creative landscaping project to come together, says the Hound.com founder. It’s fun, keeps you healthy and a great way to earn a living.

Window Dressers – You might land a coveted position on Rodeo Drive in California or at Barneys in New York, but there are many opportunities across the country for those who love bringing beauty front and center for the whole world to see. Usually, a BA in marketing and/or merchandising is your ticket into an interview.

Of course, a creative mind can always “create” her own dream job. Talent, imagination and determination go hand in hand (in hand) for these types of careers. As with all professions, it’s what you make it. The goal is to be the best you can be with the talents you were born with. That, says A. Harrison Barnes, is where true success is found. It’s also where you’ll discover – or even define – your own niche.
