  We consider a light-front dressed quark state, per se, instead of a proton
state, we consider a simple composite spin-1/2 state of a quark dressed with a
gluon. This perturbative model incorporates gluonic degrees of freedom, which
enable us to evaluate the gravitational form factors (GFFs) of the quark as
well as the gluon in this model \cite{More:2021stk, More:2023pcy}. We employ
the Hamiltonian framework and choose the light-front gauge $A^+=0$. We
calculate the four GFFs and corroborate the sum rules that GFFs satisfy. The
GFF $D$ is attributed to information like pressure, shear, and energy
distributions. We analyze some of these distributions for a dressed quark state
at one loop in QCD.
