Morphology
The meaning 'a person whose work demonstrates imagination, originality, and sensitivity' is directly compositional from 'creative' (able to invent or imagine new things) + 'person' (a human individual). This simple adjective + noun pattern is common across languages and follows standard English semantics, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily understand the MWE.
Etymology
The phrase creative person comes from the word create, which means 'to make' something new. Imagine an artist or inventor turning an idea into a thing or a new way of doing things, so a creative person is 'someone who uses imagination to make new things or solve problems'.
