| It's hard for me to imagine and describe the actual details, but it's not hard for me to say no, that's not correct. I think with the right vocabulary, and some prompting for details, we could get a lot more out of you. For instance, you would know the answers to at least some of these questions, I think, and not just matter-of-factly, but from your visualization: 1) Are her features highly unusual? Scar, missing eye, really far-apart eyes? 2) What color is her skin? (Relative answers are fine, like "the same color as mine") 3) What size was her nose? Tiny, average, huge? 4) What shape was her face? Long and tall? Round and cherubic? 5) Was she wrinkly? 6) Was her jawline prominent? I think with the right vocabulary, I could describe my mom's face. I could certainly sit with a patient enough sketch artist and get a great sketch. I can definitely pick her out of a lineup. But I couldn't describe to you how far her eyes sit from her nose or something. I'd have to see the sketch and give feedback on why it was wrong, I guess. |
