Among my goals for the next 12 months are: growing my self-esteem, levelling-up my art and design skills, and building a portfolio towards financial freedom.
Fingers crossed I can tick off that third one with this contribution to @nicoleminer 's self portrait competition. I'm really pleased the way this ballpoint pen sketch has turned out (tick for self-esteem) because I've been working hard on getting better at faces (tick for levelling up my art skills). Maybe I'll get lucky and win a prize, adding towards a tick for building the financial portfolio too.
