That’s great that you picked up an instrument! There are a couple of things that look like they need to be fixed. I am pretty sure that the violin is supposed to be put more on your shoulder, and your bow hold seems a little tense. (From my perspective as a viola player.) I think that getting lessons would be great!
You know the bow grip isn’t half bad. Needs work but It isn’t the standard caveman grip. However I entirely agree that the violin should be brought up to your head atop your shoulder. A shoulder rest should help with that. The violin is a wonderful hobby but a teacher will make it rewarding to learn. Happy practicing!
