We’ve asked our interviewees what they like to do to spoil themselves
because we’re convinced that taking your time to relax is absolutely cru-
cial in order for creativity to ﬂourish. Therefore, be prepared to get plen-
ty of ideas on how to do just that, by diving into these quotes from 51 of
our previous interviewees who answered the question “How do you like
to spoil yourself?”

“I’ve exhibited at San Diego’s Comic Con for the last ﬁve
years. Each day before the doors open to the thousands
of visitors, I enjoy walking the exhibit ﬂoor, visiting with fel-
low artists and enjoying a quiet viewing of all the fantastic
work.”
– Chet Phillips, Illustrator

4
“To drink 100 grams of good brandy.”
–Pronchenko Leonid Evgenievich, Painter/Artist

5
“Have a bath each evening after a long day. A simple
pleasure that rejuvenates me. Also lately, buying my own
designs I have created on the Print All Over Me site. I want
to eventually wear my own designs on a consistent basis!”
–Leisa Rich, Mixed Media Sculptural Artist

6
“In exploring new places and walking in the mountains.”

when I have gazillion things to do!”
– Vladimir Stanković, Illustrator

11
“I’m not really the spoiling type. Until I had my family, I most-
ly worked lots of low-paying and soul-sapping jobs. Being
able to work on creative projects, is how I’m spoiled now.”
–Juliane Gorman, Hat Artist/Designer

12
“I love going to live music. I was 18 in 1977 so you can guess I was into
punk and the injection of energy it brought to 70s music. So my current
treat is going to a 3 day festival in Brighton called The Great Escape. Lots
of great music, different styles (I love pretty much anything, even coun-
try and western), from bands you have never heard of. Highly recom-
mended.”
– Lawrence Haddad, Researcher, International Food Policy Research Institute

13
“I love candy and junk food! So for me that is it! When it comes to spoil-
ing myself, watch a movie and eat a lot of junk food.”
– Carlos Dattoli, Illustrator

14
“I adore spending time in libraries, looking for old books on
any subjects, even if Fantasy remains my best ever.”
– Deborah Hope Allen, Textile Artist

15
“How don’t I? Frequent breaks on the back deck, meditation
room, delicious something to eat or drink, walk in nature, Jacuzzi
or shower, sleep, massage, being with friends in person or elec-
tronically, reading at night, building a ﬁre, long or short drives,
buying ﬂowers for Lalita, loving the cats, feeding the local critters,
sending love to somebody, great movies, learning.”
– Bill Harvey, Media Innovator and Writer

16
“It depends on the mood. But it goes from buying good de-
sign books, taking a random day off and enjoying the sun, or
spending the day driving to Malibu or the desert to get out of
the city. It’s not easy because working on my own requires me
to be ﬂexible on the weekends, but I do it whenever I can. I
also really like traveling.”
–Ana Gómez Bernaus

17
“By scuba diving.”
– Sander Mirck, Architect

18

pink lilies are my favourites, going to the cinema alone, go-
ing to the Arabic baths.”
– Jenny Morbey, Designer/Illustrator

20
“Spend a couple of weeks without any technology – no In-
ternet, no phones or tablets. I know that’s ironic, considering
that my work revolves around technology.”

early in the morning, when the sky is still almost dark-blue,

rageous. I love to be challenged by them and getting that
unique dining experience inspires me being creative in my
own ﬁeld.”
– Dr. Finn Majlergaard, Manager Partner and CEO, Cultural researcher

and talk to people.”

boy I had always had an incredible passion for cars and grew up dream-
ing of someday owning a Ferrari, which essentially is in my blood and runs
through my veins. Also Rolls-Royce is simply the deﬁnition of the “Best of The
Best” and is the greatest road going vehicle ever built and has a simply mag-

years that people have told me is quite a collection.”

– Terry Cervantes, Artist/Potter

36
“By buying brand clothing.”
– Arild Karlsen, Business owner

down to my workshop with big doors.”
