12715325, im a designer by trade, but i just finished my first painting in 11 years or so

in school i did painting & design pretty equally
but once i graduated i focused entirely on design
finally got the urge to paint again a year or so ago, so i puttered around on this new piece ever since - just finished it a couple weeks ago
ive refused to post it online or on social media though - its a pretty intensely personal mixed media piece and theres just too much going on in it (technically and content wise) that you cant see if not in person
also i put WAY too much into it for it to be glanced at and "liked" in passing on my instagram or FB feed. fuck that.

oh to answer your question, no, i dont sell my work.
i mean, if someone wanted to pay for it, i wouldnt have a problem with it
but im not putting any effort into making that happen.
its really about the DOING for me. im actually kind of at a loss for what to do with this thing now, but i want to get it out of the way so i can start on something new.
