For those who still can see: Here’s a video of me drawing a realistic flower with 5% vision (youtu.be)

I have normal vision but I enjoy following this sub. Thanks for posting the video. I was really impressed and enjoyed it.

I’m fairly new to YouTube, but if I can get enough views/subscribers, I have an incentive to produce/post more content.

This is amazing to watch. I subscribe to this sub because my boss is blind. But I am also an art teacher. I hope you don't mind if I share this with my students. We have just begun working with colored pencils. I try to impress upon them the time it takes to create work done in pencil. And also the importance of really looking at their subject.
I am very impressed and appreciative of your video. Thank you for sharing!

How is your visual field? It says “5% vision,” i am 80% blind but is because of my distorted visual field. I am a graphic designer and drawing class in college was so difficult.

It’s roughly 30 - 35 degrees on one eye, but the closer I look, the smaller it gets. There are scenes in the video showing a zoomed in segment, which is close to what I actually see when drawing.

That’s really good to hear! Maybe you can share your piece when you’re done? You can also PM me if you don’t want it to be public.
