Can someone be happy without practicing some art, be it a hobby or a job? Can contentement be reached then?
I don't mean the traditionals, I mean anything that involves creation: Pixel art, doodles, coding, even mathematics acording to some, are all creative works in that they involve the manual creation of something through creativity, knowledge, and wit.

No. Creativity is a fundamental aspect of human nature.

I won't lie, I just had this mental image of a floor made of cat faces.

I find that most people need to do something that they physically touch.

It doesn't have to be hard, but they need something that they can touch with their hands and watch develop with time and care, something that they can point to and say "This is my pride and joy!"

Yeah, validation from others is a necesity no mater how many times you tip the ol' hat.
And I won't lie, clay under my hands and a notebook at hand are too things I really enjoy. Few things can make the juices flow as well as just doodling for a few minutes.
