I'm an artist, and based on your descriptions I could not paint what you want, as it seems to be visual impossibility. And I have worked with art directors for numerous books, and I generally have no such issues.I suspect that the problem might stem from some people thinking things from more mind's eye theatre perspective whilst others are used to top down tactical map with scarce descriptions style and are unable to snap out of it. Because you constantly keep saying things that might seem sensible if looking top down tactical map, but not at all if you come to the eye level. <img src="https://media.istockphoto.com/photos/young-people-man-and-woman-greeting-or-saying-goodbye-by-waving-hands-picture-id1161944410?k=6&m=1161944410&s=170667a&w=0&h=CEXjjMPBsK_z4qvQs7wmU-pczgPACz4NdkE3r7Gz7do=" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />Like when I asked you to imagine this picture, but the guy being in darkness spell and the woman behind it, you said something like the area around the guy being very dark and the area around the woman being less dark. But from this perspective, that's the same visual area! The distance between their arms is about the same than the width of the guy's head, and of course they could be even close to each other. And of course the forest behind them is also a thing that could be seen, so your 'darkness around the guy' should not block line of sight to it either. There also seems to be people (or something) at the distance between the guy and the tree. (This picture has camera blur that wouldn't exist in reality if you have good vision, so in reality you could see them more clearly.) How could there be 'dark area' around the guy and yet you could still see them? This just simply does not make sense. Like seriously, stare at this picture and imagine what colour and luminosity each pixel should be for your description to be true. It just doesn't work.</blockquote>
