Create custom post loop with pagination in WordPress

<?php
$paged = ( get_query_var( 'paged' ) ) ? get_query_var( 'paged' ) : 1;
$args = array(  
	'post_type' => 'post',
	'post_status' => 'publish',
	'posts_per_page' => 6,
	'paged' => $paged			
);
$loop = new WP_Query( $args ); 
while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post(); ?> 
<div class="post-card">
	<div class="post-image">
		<img src="<?php echo wp_get_attachment_url( get_post_thumbnail_id($post->ID), 'full' ); ?>" class="image">
	</div>
	<div class="post-body">
		<p class="published-on"><?php echo get_the_date(); ?></p>
		<h3 class="post-title"><a href="<?php the_permalink();?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h3>
	</div> 
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<div class="post-pagination">
	<?php pagination_bar( $loop ); ?>
</div>
<?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>

Pagination function

function pagination_bar( $custom_query ) {
    $total_pages = $custom_query->max_num_pages;
    $big = 999999999; // need an unlikely integer
    if ($total_pages > 1){
        $current_page = max(1, get_query_var('paged'));
        echo paginate_links(array(
            'base' => str_replace( $big, '%#%', esc_url( get_pagenum_link( $big ) ) ),
            'format' => '?paged=%#%',
            'current' => $current_page,
            'total' => $total_pages,
        ));
    }
}
