Hm, alright, so abstract in concept, what about in word? Do you like using metaphors and analogies, or are you more about describing the scenery?
Person focused drawings... some may say F with that in mind, but that doesn't seem to really indicate much in the grand scheme of defining someone as F or T. Do you draw people you know? If so, do you draw them how you see them, or do you try to get as accurate as possible with their physical features?
I don't use metaphores and I don't talk about sceneries. I write the way I talk and the stories are pretty character based. All characters are based on real people and people who already exist in fiction (I'll admit it), but I add some things to them that make them seem someone completely different. Sometimes I mix different people and turn them into one new character. I also dramatize a lot. To be honest, my current big story would be a boring whodunnit without the extravagant characters. My previous story would have been a just crappy thriller without the mad characters. They add some absurdity and I think that's my trademark. And with the current story I also do some research on stuff.
The people I draw are most of the time not based on real people. Sometimes they are and most of the time I make charicatures of them in that case. When I was in art class I also used to put people in my works and most of the time that was me. In that case I drew a more simplistic version of me, except the time I drew myself getting eaten by a monster pacman (that didn't mean shit, I just thought it looked awesome). Once we had to draw portraits of models (we just picked some other pupils to draw) and I made pretty realistic portraits of these people only by drawing a few lines. People say I have a good eye for stuff like that.
