so i learned recently i have a thing called aphantasia. self-diagnosis, disclaimer, shouldn't be a thing generally, but this is the kind of thing that is kind of obvious if you have: it means i can't visualize things. i don't have mental images. apparently this isn't NORMAL and this is NEWS TO ME and makes art KIND OF FRIGGIN HARDER than it's supposed to be. so im being real nice to myself and letting myself use refs even though i hate doing that. because i literally cannot think of things in my brain in a visual way. ???? people can do that lol? i have just always drawn things and spent hours adjusting them until they look 'right' because that's how i visualize. literally have to draw it.

tl;dr apparently i have aphantasia which means i cant visualize things. i use more refs now.

here's a hot take of no ref vs loose ref. kill me

also don't @ me AP art course because i STILL feel guilty for using refs and i've been out of high school for like three years

I'm really glad that you were able to find out about it, and now know how to work around it.
Your art has always been great regardless, and I'm certain you can only improve even quicker now. :)
As always I look forward to what you can do Chary. :heart:
