    Sick stuff man.
    You might try finding an art forum, they have places where you can actually auction off stuff.
    I don't know any forum sites, but I remember seeing one once.
    Or E-bay, Amazon?
    Unless you're trying to sell it to a skater personally.

    I found the left arm's detail strange in comparison to the right
    with all the ripples, it's an insane amount of detail and respect for putting in work
    If it's not meant to be abstract maybe think about that and proportion, the board is a little off.
    It's a cool piece. I like it, just keep Progressing.

    I feel like I really wanted to sell it to someone who could fully appreciate the value of it, like a true skater or skateboard enthusiast. Right now it's on it's way to a state gallery, and people are just gonna ho-hum at it because it not "real artsy" hipster shit like everyone paints now. So I wanted it in the hands of a die hard haha. Thanks a bunch though, for real.

    Oh also it's in a Fisheye distortion, thats why the proportions look 'off'. It's referenced from a real skate photo.

    I like everything about it, no complaints. I used to paint some pinups and stuff back years ago, been wanting to do a few more paintings lately but seem to never find the time. My only question is how did you manage to be in nearly the identical pose for the front and back photos, like literally the differences in your hand positions and body is miniscule, it tripped me out hardcore at first. I was convinced you used the same photo and just swapped the front and back out haha, so I carefully analyzed it till I saw some differences....too high.

    Gracias. Yeah it was a major bitch to make sure you could differentiate between the tones of grey.
