Drawing on Chol HaMoed for Enjoyment

Question

Is it permitted to draw on Chol HaMoed for enjoyment, and not as work? I am accustomed to drawing several pictures a day, and it is difficult for me to refrain from this on Chol HaMoed.

Answer

Shalom u’vrachah 

It is forbidden to draw on Chol HaMoed, even for enjoyment. 

Drawing is considered skilled craftsmanship.
