Is it possible to create multiple directories for drawable in res?

So I have tried creating new directories by right clicking the res folder then on new--> Android Resource Directory.Then I changed the Resource Type to drawable.

After doing all that I copied my images into this new directory that I have created and when I try to assign them to an imageview that was not assigned yet an image through the xml with the command android:src="@mydir/mypic" android studio does not recognise my custom folder name. Is this even possible?
I am using android studio 2.2.3

You can't create subfolders for drawables in the res/drawable folder. See this question here in SO.

Can the Android drawable directory contain subdirectories?
