So this is my first anime style drawing in over 4 years done completely in colour pencil with no eraser or pencil because I could find them “=_= done in just over 40 minutes which I know is pretty slow for something of this simplicity and style but aiyo gimme a break la. Haven’t done things like this in a long time anyway. yes, also very aware that the girl is expressionless, mouths a bit wonky and eyes not balanced but I think I did pretty well lor! Mieh
But that’s not the point of this post anyway “=_=
Was looking at the drawing and it suddenly occurred to me how long its been since I even really held colour pencils or paint brushes for fun and watch how very different shades of colour can blend so perfectly well with one another to create an illusion of unexpected harmony.
I wonder how badly my art skills have become after all this years of not practicing it. Can you actually lose your ability to draw and colour?? Serious question here.
I doubt I can even redraw portraits from still pictures anymore .__. Not that I was ever really good at that anyway but still! Bleargh. So what am I even remotely good at now? I really haven’t the slightest clue wei .__.
Tragic max!

hey! cute drawing up there! definitely looks stiff but if that’s the starting point after four years of nothing, then it’s seriously not bad! d(^~^)
but yesh, you can ‘lose’ your ability to draw and colour. if you don’t practice enough, it will get worse. trufax as told by my one academy lecturers.
sucks, right? but since you have previous experience, i think you’d be quick at picking it up again =) draw more!! I wanna see!
hahahhaa one day feel like drawing den it just goes away again =X so i doubt ull get to see any new drawings anytime soon. u__u
