I've been having a lot of thoughts about what it means to make art lately too. Maybe this is counterintuitive, but I'm trying to think less about it, both writing & drawing. I think that beginner's spirit you're seeking comes from a place that lacks introspection, lacks asking yourself why you're doing something, why it's this way. Another way to phrase it is the lack of expectations. You spoke about learning the

rules of anatomy, but you're not bound by them, even if you think they are. It sounds like you're wanting to emulate your earlier art, but the only way to go back to how you once were is to do things unselfconsciously, to do your artwork for the sake of doing it.

I feel the same way; 2024 will be our year of doing things ! I'd like to draw nude models, women in particular if that matters & animals, normally birds, hounds, or woodland ones like deer. I'd be happy to have any resources sent my way, as looking for reference images takes away from my drawing time
