What images are in the mind of a composer while he creates music?
As a graphic designer I am interested if there are shapes, colours, textures or other imagery in the mind of a composer as he creates music. Does he/she "build", "draw", or "form" 2D or 3D images? Does sound have shape and colour and texture in her mind? Is there an intermediate step before sound is conceived? I know by asking people that they visualize the abstract concept of time in their minds (by a time line, or a series of shapes, or a dial or a list and many other means, I expect). It would be very useful if a composer would post his personal knowledge about this.

1791. He wrote initial violin part, then just the vocal and organ parts subsequently.
