Story time. :D I used to go to an art class in 2023 but I soon found out that I'm not cut out for drawing assignments and such. I usually consider myself a mostly self-taught artist since I learned nearly nothing at that place. Anyway. I stopped drawing in 2024 because the class pretty much destroyed my enjoyment of art. I was doodling aimlessly at best. Around summer last year (2025), I decided to pick up a pencil and try again. This bust shot was my first attempt at drawing seriously again and actually creating something that's not heavily referenced on stuff I found on the Internet. It led me to drawing more things and finally improving on things I want to improve on. So it has a special place in my heart. With all that cheesy stuff aside, I present to you elf girl that spawned from the deep dark depths of my tiny brain. Precisely 1 year and 3 months ago, I was so proud of that drawing. Now I'm just bothered by the way I drew her eyes lol.
