The arts are an essential part to the psyche and a definite must have to be a complete renaissance man. You don't have to be amazing at drawing, painting, or writing to participate in it just as you don't have to have supreme athleticism to participate in sports. Galileo played the lute and painted, Thomas Jefferson designed furniture and fixture, me for example I write poetry and music. Creativity is essential to grasp and create many concepts, you don't want to be prosaic. Imagination is necessary fro creation and invention. The arts help you train and exercise your mind and use your personal abilities to express. Even though it may not make you famous or make a lot of money, it helps you a lot, and in the end you have something you and others can appreciate. You are able to convey messages and other things better through the arts than many other ways.
So go out and take an art class, pick up your pens, pencils, & brushes, pick up an instrument and find a way to express.
