Is there any point in doing illustration when you can't visualize things - see in mind's eye.
I'm not talking about imagination - i can make up a story, but i can't see a damn thing in mind's eye, not even a dot, triangle, nothing.
The problem with that is (some of you might find yoursrlf in that description) that when you draw, you can't imagine/see in your head how the line you are trying to put down will look like.
So in order to actually see if that single line will "work" or not, i literally have to draw it.
So i can draw 10 lines before get the "right" one.
In other hand, people who can visualize can see in their head if that line they are trying to draw will work or not. They know how thst line will look before they even draw it, because they see it in head.
In my case, i have to draw a line from one point to another to see how it looks.
Anyone else strugle that? To be honedt that is my biggest pain in the ass.
Technical skill can be learned, also imagination, creativity and sense for design.
But you can't do literally anything to be able to start to visualize.
Pic related, if you ask me to imagine red triangle, i can sit all day and try to recall that image in mind, all i will see is black space (like no.1)
you don't need to visualise you dumb cunt, just construct it or use your intuition for line placement.
how long have you been at it?
You sound like you're being too precious with your throwaway work. Or else not being conscious enough of what you're doing. Practice will give you the mental catalogue that makes "visualization" possible.
This might not be true if you're autistic.

to clarify, i can visualise things in my head but i never use it drawing
Should I even play baseball? I mean I haven't tried much but when I try to throw it I can't aim well or predict where it will go. Does anyone else have this problem? People good at baseball know where it's going to hit before they throw it. I can't even get it in the strike zone. It's literally impossible for me and I should give up.
im a strong 4 at best
