Description This was the first painting I completed as an artist. I probably should've chosen something of a smaller scale – it took me about 6 months to finish (working on it part time, as I was still busting my balls doing graphic design). It's madeΒ up of 4 canvases, each 1m square. It was also my first attempt at illustrating tattoos, so that was fairly time consuming. I was so obsessed with making it perfect that I probably redid most areas multiple times. Not sure how I feel about the finished product.

I know how it feels to make things perfect. It's frustrating.

It looks perfect to me though!

The ironic thing is, the more you try to make it perfect, the worse it turns out!

I had that happen to me before. Then the whole piece just gets ruined. I would just give up and try it again after a short break.

Haha, I pretty much did that for 6 months. But I guess I learned a lot.

6 months!? Wow. I would have forgotten by then. Lol
