Art and aspies

Post Reply New Topic

Sorta. I'm much more of a mathematically minded technical person though. But, whenever I get the opportunity, I always enjoy combining the two in any way I can.

I am not very artistic, but I am fairly good at photography, which is an art.

I chose drawing/sketching/painting though I have been doing some serious creative writing for 8 months now, but this is not a natural occurring talent. I've actually had a history of learning disorders and aversion to reading and writing. It was lying dormant in me, past on from my mother, and just needed a little spark to come out. Spark...medication...same thing.

I have been drawing since I was about three and up until my late teens that's all I did. I recently picked it back up and have started painting too. I'm good, not fantastic or anything but have the potential to be. I'm just so busy with my creative writing though.

Oh, and I do photography. Concerts and stuff. Well I did for six years. People say I'm good. I think it's not challenging enough.

I'm more interested in landscapes.

Oh look, it's the Moon!

I draw.
Feel free to check out some of my artwork http://toonskribblez.deviantart.com/

I draw/write/play the guitar

I draw/sketch, and color I also do a little with photography. I haven't really drew anything for a very long time. Here is a few of my stuff: http://kagome440.deviantart.com/

I train border collies to start fires with their minds.

That and I do 3D animation, but you already knew that.

I am artistic in spurts. Thus far my spurts go like this.. I get excited about an idea, I work on it until I consider it done, I present it to the world, nobody seems to like it, I become depressed, and I don't make anything more for a while. I suspect that I've had my last spurt and have generally given up on people. I've never felt quite like this before, so I think that's it. I do still enjoy writing about myself on message boards though It is nice to think that all these ultimately unsocial traits of mine that I always thought were completely unique aren't entirely unique to me, but I still don't see how it helps me in the long run. But yeah.

I've mostly written fiction-like prose, also software projects trying to create 'artificial' life and pictures from 'randomness' and miscellaneous other little things that were fun for a little bit.

@Hotura, @_Square_Peg_, Nice drawings!

@pensieve, ...and pictures.

Yes I love to draw, I enjoy arts and craft, scrapbooking, beading which is making necklaces and bracelets. I play the drums, flute and guitar more the drums these days and I mostly like to sketch science fiction fantasy characters and anything to do with medieval times such as swords, shields, armour. I design my own swords and I would love to one day learn how to make my own sword.

Do the aspies here with people skills know about fragile x syndrome (FXS) as i only found out today about it... worth having a look at.

Can't say I have much artistic talent. I wish I did but I've never really had the opportunity to develop them.

I use to really like drawing as a kid tho.
