Perhaps you haven't lost it. Personally, I was a graphic design major eons ago. I quit school before I graduated because I didn't feel that I was good enough.
I stopped drawing and even tore up my old pictures. I don't recall how many years I didn't do it. But then I started drawing again at my job at the time to keep me from being bored. The workload was erratic (there were days where I had absolutely nothing to do. Sort of wish it was that way now instead of being constantly overwhelmed) so I took a Steno pad and started looking for pictures. I also used the back of copy paper. I didn't have the best supplies, but I worked with what I had. This one was done in 2018 or 2019.
This one was done in 2022. I got better supplies.
I mentioned that I did pictures to someone on the Book of Faces and they were interested and wanted to see some of my efforts. I was hesitant to show anything of mine (I had received some harsh comments before) and this person was impressed. This got me to trying to do at least one picture a day. It didn't really matter what it was; so long as I did something a day. I don't consider myself an artist, but people seem to enjoy what I do.
When I do pictures, I tend not to think of anything. I don't even really think about the colors I'm going to use. I just start in. I do a lot of erasing sometimes before I put the ink down but I don't force anything. The few times when I can see beforehand that something isn't going to come out the way I'd like, I get a new piece of paper and try a different pose.
I know this response is a little long, but I really did not think that I would do pictures again yet the site where I upload them has over two thousand.
