I love to draw in my free time. It's so therapeutic to me whenever I sit down with a white canvas, giving me the freedom to draw anything according to my thoughts. I'm so engrossed in the act of drawing that time flies, and I don't even realize I've spent 3 to 4 hours on one drawing. It's incredibly refreshing for me.
