I’m autistic. I have a special fascination with body language and facial expressions, and I am not often very good at reading people i am directly interacting with but I can read people I am watching like they are a book, and people have been telling me for ages that the best strength in my art is my handling of expressions. It’s the difference between Observation and Application. I try to use my observational knowledge as applied knowledge, and I have learned something amazing and kind of awful.
One of the most bleakly horrible things
you can possibly learn as a skill
is how to tell a real smile
from a false one.
