About the drawing

Every few years I have a need to draw myself. Because so far I haven't drawn a self-portrait that would resemble me in 100%, hence this need. This time I am close enough, because the drawing resembles the original picture very much, but... I don't look that pretty in real :lmao: Anyway, now I'm 26 [almost 27 :cries:], but the ref picture was taken when I was 25.
This portrait is kind of a diptych with this one, which depicts my friend Marcysiabush.

Pretty!  Both this one and the drawing of your friend Marcysiabush look great!  Wow.  I love how vivid the colors you get are.
