I hear you! I put my pencils down for almost thirty years. But there was never a time that I did not want to be doing art, dreaming of doing it, but unable to pick up a pencil. It is a long story. But the happy ending is that I started up four years ago and there has been nothing but joy in drawing again and great hopes for painting soon!!! The first portrait I did after so many years seemed to draw itself, like some kind of magic. I was amazed at what came out. I may post it for you if I have it here.
Anyways, I can see from this drawing that you are going to soar and I am sure you will get great encouragement from the professionals on this site. So glad you are here on the forum. You will love it.
Glad to "meet" another graphite/charcoal artist. There are so few of us here!!! I look forward to more of your drawings.
