visual artists: when you have an idea for something, does it appear in your mind as the finished product, the steps you'll have to take, a sentence, or something else?
finished thing (i saw an image of an apple in my head so that's what i'll draw)
steps (if i draw an apple, i'll draw a circle as a guide first, then...)
sentence (i should draw an apple being picked from a tree)
a combination of these (tell me in the tags!!)
something else (also tell me in the tags!!!!)
not a visual artist, just curious.

i have aphantasia (i can't see images in my brain) so i just like hearing how other people visualize ideas LOL also hopefully the examples i wrote make sense it's kind of hard to put into words but ehhhh
for those wanting to help venezuelans affected by the bombings through donations, these are currently the best ways to go. will add more links as more is set up
My name is Mahmoud. I live in Gaza with my family, and we are going through a very difficult financial situation. I tried to create a donation link for my family, but I couldn't find someone to help organize and manage the campaign ๐ฅบ๐So my friend Ahmed decided to support me by sharing his own familyโs donation link, and we agreed to split the donations between our two families.
Right now, we have almost no food, and the cost of living has become unbearable due to the siege, soaring prices, and the closure of all crossings.Everything has doubled in price in an unimaginable way ๐ฅฒ๐ฅบ
We might be forced to flee to southern Gaza after the announcement of a full invasion of Gaza City ๐
The bombing and destruction never stop โ not for a single moment. There is no longer any real life in Gaza. We are just struggling to survive, trying to secure the bare minimum: water and food.
Winter is coming, and we have no winter clothing after our home was destroyed and we were displaced multiple times ๐ญ๐ฅฒPlease, we urgently need financial help to buy food and store some in case the situation worsens.
This is our donation link.
Please remember: donations are shared between two families. So, for the sake of God, help us, my friend. Save our children, my younger siblings, my parents, and even my older siblings โ we are all homeless and hungry ๐ฅบ๐ฅฒ๐

Hello, I am running this campaign on behalf of Shahd. Please, read Shahd's message below, share, and donate if you can!
My daughter, my husband, and I live below the lifeline... We suffer in silence...
We have no one but God, and after Him, you ๐
๐ Any donation - no matter how small - will make a difference!
Your donation could save a life, bring peace to a scared mother's heart, and put a smile on the face of Aysel, who understands nothing of life except her mother's embrace and a drop of milk. ๐ผ๐
That's why I launched this campaign. ๐
And I appeal to you with tears in a mother's eye, help us with anything...
A simple donation from you could save our lives. ๐
๐ Please, don't ignore my plea...
Share with us, help us, and make our voices heard everywhere. ๐๏ธ
Perhaps it will reach a living heart and be the reason for our survival...
