I am a transgender 19 year old guy trying to save money for my top surgery. I have severe chest and back pain due to wearing binders when I was in high school. I can't wear them anymore because I have floating ribs now and those do not mix well with tight or ill-fitting clothing. I'm hoping to use my art to make some extra money to add onto my savings, and maybe one day I can be a full time artist. I'm also a writer, but I haven't had much motivation for writing here lately so I'm taking a break to work on my painting. If anyone is interested, I would also love to do art requests. I've always been facinated with all forms of art and I think that is a great way to practice.
