I have a very myopic imagination.

I draw more than I'd like to admit considering my lack of appreciable skill in either observational or imaginative drawing, but I certainly could be drawing more.

draw from reference using construction and a higher understanding of what you're attempting to depict.

this is how you memorize and build a visual library.
