I don't really know what to draw, how to draw, what to improve. I'll try watching some more videos, but I'm a bit afraid of falling into the tutorial trap and not being able to draw things without 1:1 reference. I do actually have a handful of ideas I'd like to draw, but I feel I'm not skilled enough to successfully draw them, so I'm kind of holding off on trying them. -Honestly: this felt super stressful to do today!
