Art After a Year

I hadn't done any art in a year - a frustrating side effect of depression - and then, around Christmas, I was given a few new sketchbooks.  So, one night, I started sketching again.  It was so much fun.  Between Christmas and New Years (around there anyways) I did the following:

Sketched out with pencil

My twin, Rebecca, and I do not look alike.  My hair is whatever color I decide to dye it that month while hers is brown.  My eyes are blue and her eyes are, once again, brown.  My hair is shorter, hers is long.  But we do have a lot of things in common.  One of those things is that we both love to read.  This is a quick sketch I did of my sister based off of a picture I took.  What was she doing in the picture?  Reading.  This showed me that even the simplest of sketches can illustrate a person's image well.
