Wow a lot of people jumped on my "I wish I could draw" comment o.o

You know how lots of people have certain ways of learning things? Some find it easier to learn if they see it in a diagram, others need long drawn out explanations and yet others need to experience the thing themselves? Well, as a whole, people have different ways of thinking and perceiving the world and mine happens to be verbally. I can write about my characters (and I have, that's what I mean by they spoke to me) but I can't picture them in my head even while looking at the characters on the screen. Likewise, I can't picture my mother's face even after living with her almost every day of my life for the last almost 30 years. My mind simply doesn't do visual stuff. Trying to represent something visually (such as drawing, painting, sculpting, etc) isn't my field, whereas writing is.

I like writing and I'm happy writing but I just thought it would be nice if I could get a commission done of the characters I love so much...
