My name Is Michelle and I am a student at the University of Gloucestershire, studying Illustration. My project I am doing is focusing on six different disorders/ illness's (such as autism, depression, anxiety ADHD, Bipolar and tourettes) I am focusing on autism at the moment and would greatly appreciate any help any of you can give me. I personally was born with Aspergus syndrome, so I am sympathetic to people out there like me.
Its quite hard finding people with autism to help me with this project but I was hoping some of you could. What I need is for maybe two or three of you to individually tell me what autism would be like as a creature and I'll draw it. What you picture it as. Then I will bring it back to here and show you if possible and ask if that's what you meant. I will keep doing it until you are happy with it. I can even put fake names on the research project if you are uncomfortable with having your real name or screen name shown.
Someone please help me ^_^ thanks so much. Michelle
Yeah, I guess so. If you are able to draw it to get the point across. Like the world you kind of want to be a part of, but can never make it because you aren't able to show yourself. The worlds perceptions are so different then the real me.
artist just popping in said:I didnt mean it in a bad way ClaireHig - I meant whether you see it as a companion or whether you see it as an ailment. Its intirely individual. I didnt set out to offend people - I am perfectly happy myself with my Aspergus so I'm not saying its a bad thing at all. As for your post I'llneverbeold would you say it would be suitable if I drew a person walking down a street but everyone else is coloured in and solid, wheres the person in the centre frame is scribbly, like a rough drawing? like they havent been coloured in yet? More of a surreal situation than a creature?
