Non-mahram approaching a group of ladies

Q: If a female is among a group of other females and a non mahram male approaches the group of females to speak to the other females she is in the group with, is it enough for this particular female to lower her gaze and refrain from useless chatter with the male while still standing in the group or is she supposed to leave the gathering when the male approaches?

Drawing animate objects

Q: There's something lately bugging me a lot. I'm a developing artist. I am going to pursue my career in arts, and I've been told by my many art teachers that drawing anatomy isn't properly forbidden until I researched myself hadiths related to it. Now I feel quite hesitant towards drawing faces, I've always been really good at drawing human features. And might also face consequences in future where I'll have to face drawing anatomy. What I should do? It's something not making me happy yet also I love arts. Even if from now on I try to avoid making faces, what about the ones I have made before?
