0.000 HBDI've been sleeping 4 hours every night.
## And that sucks. For context, 2022 is ending soon. That means many deliverables at work are pending for completion, too. I guess more importantly, that means the semester is ending as well. And boy, do they all come crashing down on me. So the past week, I have been consistently sleeping for less than 4 hours. That's bad for me because I'm so used to sleeping eight hours. I swear I haven't been feeling so energized, too, which begs the question, "Just how long do I survive in this state?" This means... I also have less time to draw. Not being able to draw kind of breaks my heart, because I badly want to. I have a pending illustration I started earlier this month but couldn't finish, too. To be honest, I have half the thought that the next time I'll be able to come up with one is next year. I'm just so glad I was able to draw this one today. Small win! ## The drawing This one didn't take so long, though I wasn't able to time it, so I couldn't say for sure. It's based of [this Pinterest image](https://pin.it/1mx8IbL). I started working on the sketch last night, cleaned the sketch earlier this morning, then started painting halfway through the morning. Honestly? I'm really happy about how this turned out. <center>https://images.ecency.com/DQmeYQNfmhmQi8tPvPeMN8uaKwXGtbJvGAqffeso61YsVqk/export202211291113324266.jpg<br>https://images.ecency.com/DQmeMK2DxmW4ygA72Rgin3cGu2J1twY4tDfuZZ6ZCJxXfPL/20221129_112902.jpg</center> The reference was something I hoped @debilog would draw, too. I've been challenging my friends to draw things with me because I honestly just want to be part of their art journey. 🙈 When I saw the reference image, I just knew this was something they'd like to paint as well. At some point, I think she resembled Le Sserafim's ex-member, [Kim Ga-ram](https://g.co/kgs/vAAFGf), then halfway through the eyes, she kind of looked like [TWICE's Nayeon](https://g.co/kgs/ifvo7A). I think the model is neither. 😅 <center>https://images.ecency.com/DQmZcTW9nCE76MhE4o1QuhTvG9qhzo2RrmttQvXjBmkAEEj/20221129_112748.gif</center> My favorite part to draw was the pair of eyes. In fact, it was the eyes that drew me in! How the mouth turned out also makes me proud. What I'm *not* proud of is the hair. I think it could've been better. At any rate, I'm just glad I was able to draw something today! It took my mind off things, but of course, I also couldn't help thinking about them somewhat while working on this. I can't wait for the week to be over! Until my next drawing!
