none of my art comes from my head
everything is just me procedurally smashing things together and just letting my hand do whatever it wants as thoughtlessly as if im drawing a merc_wip
it works for the most part
but no matter how interesting it is
it doesnt feel like mine
like I can be like
"im going to draw this"
but it isnt me drawing it
its me figuring out what it actually is

I do that too but not all the time
Like I use it as a technique to come up with more "subconscious" ideas that I would come up with normally. Me when drawing subconsciously: bizarre, surreal things that I can't always even explain what they are - me when drawing consciously: naked girls with guns

I think everyone does this. If you actually could conceive a crisp image in your head, and put it on paper exactly as you envisioned it, you'd lose the drive after 10 minutes. After all, it would just be physical labour.
The joy of drawing and painting is exactly because you keep figuring 'it' out and extrapolating from what's on the paper to create something beautiful.

I have some mental imagery but its painfully frustrating how lacking it is
like ill have a girl in my mind
she has an dark yale blue legion cap and a carrot orange raincoat over a dark blue and brown baja
I can imagine what she does and how she would smile and all the colors perfectly
but a single line of structure is completely lost to me
