Hey, /ic/. I have something called dysgraphia, which basically minds I can't draw for shit. I've always been embarrassed by my handwriting, and when I was in highschool I avoided art class at all costs.
Recently I've been trying to channel some creative energy into a new medium and I'm curious what other people think.

Well, I like it.
>>
kind of creepy actually...the kind of stuff you'd see kids draw in horror films
>>
>>2450723
That's actually good to here. I think some of the most horrific scenery is everyday life, captured through the eyes of a child.
>>2450722
Thanks, any tips?

Your stuff so far reminds me a lot of the American artist Bill Traylor. He didn't start drawing until he was 85 so you got a leg up on him time wise, ha.

Very poor fine motor control. The worst part is there is nothing you can do to make it better. I worked with an occupational therapist for 6 years, to no avail.

At this point I am very used to it, it's never been any different. It can be embarrassing and frustrating though when I needed to sign my name or write something and it looks like a first graders print.

>>2450774
Thanks, chief.

>>2450762
What is?
>>
>>2450720
Are you trying to draw like David Lynch or is it happening naturally? Either way it looks pretty good.
>>
>>2450776
>poor fine motor skills

Draw BIG then.
>>
i like it. the world really doesnt need loomis #1934834

So don't do things that require fine motor control. Work large and learn how to paint and place values correctly rather than relying on linework and detail, and you'll be better off than most people already.

What's stopping you from using a palette knife or some other medium that encourages you to paint loosely?
>>
>>2450714
bullshit, another excuse to not learn fundamentals
>>
yeah well i like it so therefore keep doing what you're doing
>>
>>2450714
Dig it man, love the eeriness of it.

I've always wanted to draw similar things to this but I don't believe I can draw.
>>
>>2450714
Sounds like autism.
>>
>>2450759
basically its dyslexia but for writing and not reading
>>
Creepier than anything made in /x/, if you would draw shadow people that would be pretty sick. Saved them all.

Keep doing you, OP
>>
>>2450776
geez that sound really deprssing, is it the same for sports and driving then?

dont need to worry about shit handwriting though, even normal people have shitty ones so youre already one upping them if yours is legible even with your trouble

maybe try every method you can think of, and post 'em to see which ones work for you best

anyways best of luck
>>
>>2450714
I agree with the others. very eerie! doesn't seem very forced either. just genuine. keep at it
