11. Is it a problem if I have a character who I do not wish to describe?

Hi, so, as a writer, I am weak at describing characters. I generally don’t do it. In my recent book, I know there are no direct descriptions of things like facial features and age. So, my style, this style, suggests descriptions are not critical. Where it became a little tricky, I had certain scenes where some degree of character description was helpful to developing the scene. At a funeral, for example, I couldn’t just say “everyone wore black” (how boring) … and adding some extra detail, like “black like a galaxy of stars” and “black like the abyss of the void” compared to “an outfit that was department store black” helped to demonstrate the mentalities of some characters I was introducing.
