This drawing is based on the animation called The Secr...

Hi everyone! 🥰
Today I finished filming our bonus video this month which is a self-portrait process video, and here is the result! This is my very first attempt to draw a self-portrait digitally and in my style and it was sooooooo challenging 😅 Part of the challenge was because I was drawing from a mirror rather than a photo reference, which I didn’t realize would be kinda tricky 👀 The lighting was changing in the room during the drawing proc...
