If writing is something you love doing then more of that writing can teach you creative writing... simply put.
What is your perspective on "creative" however is a big variable here. Many will mistake creativity for colors in your words, which is fun and all, but it is not any less important than your creativity in keeping the writing style easy to absorb.
I wouldn't say Creative Writing is something that can be learned. While writing styles can be studied, analysed and learnt the creative aspect comes from a writer's ability to add new life or movement to what is being written. And this creative element can be different in manifestation from person to person.
That being said you could look at how various writers cover similar topics and what they bring to it. A description of a business from different writers will showcase a uniqueness each of them will bring to the description process.
Therefore the best way to learn to write creatively will be to read as much as you can while paying attention to the style of writing and the ways in which they approach the subject of that piece of writing. Pretty soon you yourself would be able to bring in your own personality, style and embellishments to make your writing stand out.
Creative writing, according to me, is not something that may be taught. It's not a school or a university course. One can learn language, grammar, articulation. But to put all that together and come up with a creative text requires natural skill. I speed up my creativity by reading. The more I read, the better I write. The more I write, the more I need to read. So I strongly believe that reading various forms of writing, not just the form you wish to write, helps a great deal.
I used to read for leisure only. But ever since I've begun writing, I mentally analyse writing forms as I read. At all times. And once I'm done, I read the reviews of the work as well, if any. Helps me put together the writer's work and the audience's reaction, and analyse and judge better.So, read more and more. Read diverse forms of writing. And polish your linguistic skills. Creative writing and good vocabulary & grammar go hand in hand. Your ideas might be great. But if you can't express them well, they won't be as great as they're meant to be.
Just to add to what they said. Anyone who is open to other people's ideas and writing style. Who do not force people to what he/she thinks it better. You can learn how to write by spending more time reading and analyzing other written texts.
