I am currently working on creating my own drawings that are based on the Autistic Model of the World. I hope to post them once I find the time to do so.
This is the first time I’ve been able to see some of the drawings I’ve done, and I’m pretty impressed so far. Many of the drawings have been done in Photoshop so I can see the process, but I’ve also been able to see some of the drawing that I used in Illustrator to make the final drawings. I’m hoping to share a link once I’ve had a little time to study the drawings more deeply.
I am a self-taught artist that draws mostly with pen and paint. I feel like Ive always had a love of drawing, and even when I was in school I had drawings on my walls that I loved to draw. However, I have always been interested in creating art and drawing as a hobby. It didn’t take long for me to realize that I had a skill that I knew I had the potential to develop.
Ive always hated to draw and hate to paint. Ive been drawing since I was a baby. Its not like I cant learn or that I dont have talents or skills. To me, drawing and painting are two of the most solitary things in the world. It makes no sense to me to work at both of these things 24/7.
I think it’s because I am more creative, and while I do have a knack for drawing, I have no talent for painting, and most of the time I dont need to. But I’ve been asked to join a few art contests, and they always ask me to paint. It’s not because I dont have the talent, its because I don’t feel I have the skill. I have worked on my own pieces, but I havent been asked to paint for a long time.
I hear you. I was also asked to paint before, but the idea of doing it for the first time makes me feel strange, and I always feel as though I am doing something wrong. However, even though I wasn’t asked to paint my own pieces, I was asked to paint some of the pieces for a contest at a website I was asked to submit some of my paintings for.
I think that’s part of the difference between painting and painting for art, which is that painting for art is about the result, not the process. Painting for art is about achieving your own personal vision, not about how you paint an image to express that vision. Whether it’s painting your own signature, painting your own signature for a class, or painting your own signature for a friend, it’s about the result, not the process.
I think most autistic children have just learned to paint for themselves, and not for class. Their goal is to be great painters and great artists and the art that they do is just supposed to express their inner world.
Autism is a spectrum disorder, and it’s not uncommon for people on the spectrum to have trouble with social skills. Some autistic people are also so intense that they can feel like they’re in a trance when they’re painting. But for the most part, autistic people paint for themselves and that’s probably why it’s so darn fun to see them do it.
I think we’re all going to agree that autistic art is just as much a part of the autistic art world as any of the other autistic artists on the Internet, so it’s no surprise that the art scene is so thriving. Autistics are a big part of the population, and I find people who call themselves autistic to be very engaging and fun to meet. As the autistic community grows, more people will find that there is no place like it.
