Even Geniuses Have Quiet Nights

This one came from a quieter place. Rick is usually chaos, confidence, and noise, but I wanted to sit with the version of him that doesn’t get shown as often — the one stuck alone with his thoughts. I’ll be honest, this drawing didn’t come together exactly how I wanted. Some parts feel off, and I could feel that I wasn’t fully locked in. Still, I’m glad I finished it. Not every piece has to be a win. Sometimes the point is just showing up, creating anyway, and letting that be enough — which feels oddly fitting for Rick.
