Who was the person that inspired you the most in your creativity?

My grandmother was a real inspiration to me as far as crafts go. I remember her making those necklaces that have the marbles at the end. She used to crack them in the oven. I recently looked it up online, and tried it myself, it's really cool, except I did it by cracking them in ice water after the oven. Here's a link to get you started in "Marble Cracking", http://www.wikihow.com/Make-Cracked-Marbles as if my marbles arn't cracked enough!
