Visualisations of autism

artist just popping in
over 7 years ago

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

    Thanks vometiawow so not far from where I am then really! So what would the hedgehog look like? would it be a cartoony one? would it look happy? or angry? would you put it into a situation?

    I'm now at the Fr Dougal stage of "I didn't realise I'd need to have lots of little ideas too!" :D [there should be a grin there, but the forum seems to delete them]  I hadn't really considered the hedgehog's mood: it just is.  But I'm reminded of the time we used to have a visiting hedgehog who liked to eat the leftover tandoori chicken.  Sadly, it chose another route when we had the back fence repaired and we haven't seen it since.
