Yesterday I did what was probably the first attempt at drawing 'artistically' in maybe 6-7 years:

this as a base. It's only a little drawing, done in about five or ten minutes. Since I hadn't attempted drawing a face in years (and even then I was never very good at it), I decided to try the technique where you rotate the reference image by 180 degrees. It's certainly closer to the reference than anything I'd managed to do before anyway.
