It's beneficial and fun to just do rough sketches of heads and faces while watching TV, of people you see. Here are a bunch of them from my sketchbooks.
No, that last one isn't me. Wipe that smirk off your face!
The first time I wore a face mask in public was in Vietnam in 2018. The pollution in Ho Chi Minh City was pretty bad, so I bought some from a convenience store. I felt kinda stupid wearing it, but once I was in the street I realized no one cared. Then a year and a half later the pandemic meant we were all wearing them anyway. Funny how life turns out, in'nit?
