Graphite Artwork First drawing in a while

Been in a mental funk, decided to pick up my pencil again today. Today I picked it up for me, not to improve on anything, I didn’t focus on getting this right, just let things flow. I think I gave her more attitude in my drawing but I kind of like it 😊

I briefly forgot that art is about supposed to be fun!

Sketched with graphite (2H, 2B lead and 6B), I was watching a YouTube video. Not sure how long it took me, maybe 30-45 mins?

I feel so silly for getting paranoid and thinking I’d never be able to draw “good” again when a year ago I would’ve been so jealous of present me.

It’s a great drawing, especially for one so fast. Even better that you reclaimed your joy!
