And something that is just now dawning on me. I have always wanted to be able to draw, admired it as a talent and was jealous of people who could. In the last few years I finally decided to try to learn how to for real and discovered that I definitely do have natural ability, but it's felt like there was some kind of barrier keeping me from really feeling like I'm really capable of doing it. As crazy as it sounds, it never really occurred to me until now that it's because I am incapable of the step of picturing something in my mind before I put it on paper, it's more like I'm always trying to draw something that somebody is reading a description of.
This sounds like me except without the natural aptitude. I love art so much but my attempts and progress looks like that of a low-function artificial intelligence
