/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

Every "learn to draw" guide assumes you have a functional minds eye. Are there any guides for people with aphantasia?

this gives me flashbacks to elementary school where there was this one rich kid who would always come to school to finish rendering his stupid fucking birds

just thinking about it now tilts me, i don't know why, probably be cause he thought he was hot shit or something, fuck

he would never sketch the damn birds at school, he would always do the sketches at home and then be filling in all the fucking little rendered bullshit details of the bird during lunchtime and people fawned over it

i wish i knew what i knew now so that it wouldn't have bothered me much as a kid because any stupid ass /beg/ could learn to draw a rendered birb with enough patience
not to mention that he probably had a teacher to help him critique his bullshit

i actually checked his facebook a while back and he doesn't even draw anymore lmao
he had one shit sketch of a 3DPD cartoon
i guess he realized that drawing anything beyond a simple birb actually required effort and learning the fundamentals so he quit

it kind of motivates me since it proves that drawing isn't some innate ability, it's just persistence mixed with passion

In all seriousness is there a way to overcome this?

Why is it always like this?

How do I get better at visualizing things in 3D?
