i love drawing because there isn't much of a financial barrier to it, you can get pretty good at it even with lined paper and pencils you find on the ground 😌

first one is flat ironed out since foreshortening is ☠️. 2nd one has more accurate proportions (since i did a light sketch before drawing) but the face was notttt done as well

i have to remember these aren't about perfection 😭

Two kids are standing at the top of the staircase in front of a large framed portrait of a couple. One of the kids is holding a flashlight, unaware that the kid behind them is waving hello to the transparent green ghost emerging from the painting, who is also waving back.
