writing/drawing

Sometimes writing what I may be feeling is very hard for me. I like to draw instead, my drawings may or may not have anything to do with what I would be feeling at that moment but it relaxes me in some odd way. I love to draw nature, as I have stated before I love to look at nature, it amazes me. Later when I have drawn my picture or series of chicken scratch I feel like a burden has been lifted off my shoulder. I then find myself able to write those complicated feelings I was not able to describe earlier.
Although drawing may be a prewriting in a way I am not that good at it. I am a list person for a paper so if I have to write a paper that is about an experience I have had in the past I will draw it in my head. This way I am able to visualize what I remember and my hand starts making notes like I had never had a problem in the first place. I like to do this because then I am able to think back on my past. What I did right or wrong. How I can fix or repeat those actions. All of the sudden sometimes I find my self making lists on how to improve myself, when it all started with a simple homework assignment for a class. This is a type of writing I love to do. I feel relieved at the end of everything.
