Whenever I draw or study, my inner voice becomes Feng Zhu. He encourages me and we talk about what I'm drawing and why, and sometimes he points out mistakes or suggests ways I could do something better.

I think it really helps me learn and also boosts my creativity by giving me some sort of pseudo "second perspective". Does anyone else do something similar?

As examples, while studying a ruined building:
>"Oh yeah man this is super cool, look at the cracks in this wall here what do you think happened to this?"
>*random explosion noises while drawing strewn debris/rocks around the place imagining what might have ruined the building*
>"This part of the wall is awesome he's like the big boss huh, he's like looming over the rest check out how stark this shadow bit is here, man that's cool"
>"Look at this pillar though the rest of it is so messed up man but this guy is still standing strong, he's like 'I got a job to do man', how cool is that?"

Are we possessed by feng zhu? is this why everyone coming out of fzd draws exactly like him?

Holy shit OP I do the same but with Morgana from Persona 5 instead, I even see the lines of dialog:

>Aren't you tired? Let's go get some sleep!
>Hmm that doesn't seem about right
>You must be really smart to be able to paint that!

I even see dialog options when I flirt with girls to know what to reply and it fucking works, some girl with 170k followers on instagram gave me her number the other day.

...I do it too. Not just him, but also some of the phrases my teacher has said to praise me repeat on my mind when I'm doing ok/doing really bad.
Some nice stuff my teacher said, in case you need some motivation:

>"It's okay, you already know everything you need to know to tackle this shape."
>"Don't sweat it, it's okay not to know everything about the world. Look for a ref"
>"Your stuff is good, and it will be even better after some time. Post it."

This is amazing anon. I thought I was the only one to do this.
>Granted, I do it with different characters and artists and authors, so there's almost an entirely separate world in my mind that I pull from.
Imagining Stephen Kind and George RR Martin laughing about a historical horror monster I'm writing, they're commenting and speculating on how it could be pulled off. Junji giving helpful hints on how to source it and visualize its character traits/behaviour. Sakimi and Iste correcting art fundamentals mistakes, going through revisions with them on shoulders. Look to Botticelli, Titian, Gioto for composition tips, Newton chimes in with a haughty air about adding alchemical symbolism, or some deeper meaning to a work.

Methinks singular aid may be more focussed.
