For what it's worth, I can't do what you're describing as your experience (let alone replacing other imagery).

Start with motion.
Focus on a point. Move that focus around.
Get to two points. Spread them apart, move them closer together.
Advance to tracing letters. One after the other, into a word.
Movement is key. Try reading that backwards.
And so on.
Myself, it took about six months from nothing to colored triangle.
Are you aphantasic?
