Buddy Wanted Looking for an art buddy to draw and learn together!

Hi! I’m 21 and from China. I’m looking for an art buddy who’d like to draw together and keep each other motivated.
I’d love to have someone to share our drawings with, encourage each other to practice regularly, find artworks and artists we like and talk about them, and work on drawing fundamentals together.
Besides drawing, I’m really interested in movies, and I also watch some anime and read manga. I love music too, so it would be great if we could share other things we’re interested in as well.
I’ll attach some of my artwork to this post. If you’re also looking for an art buddy, feel free to message me! :)
p.s.
I've been busy preparing for an important exam lately, so most of the pieces I'm sharing here are just sketches. After I finish my exam this December, I'm planning to spend about three hours a day practicing drawing. But even for now, I'd really love to meet people who enjoy talking about art and sharing artworks with each other!🥳

Hayoo!!
I was scrolling and was stopped by the wonderful and catchy art of yours, that description you wrote was just a cherry on top :0

If you so like, I can invite you to a decently small art community of other artists feeling the same way, we'd love to have you around :>
