Carol

Description

I've been wanting to do something like this since I saw Carol. I've been going through some pretty rough waves of internalized homophobia and I find doing gay art kind of helps to combat that (nothing else seems to help) so it's cathartic I guess. 
I really enjoyed Carol, though I think the fact it was marketed with a happy ending wasn't at all the case, it was unfortunately a p sad movie. 
BUT it was still a good movie, and Carrie Brownstein was in it (briefly) and I'll watch anything for her LOL
Anyway... I was contemplating whether I should upload this or not but I guess here it's p safe. This won't be up on fb or instagram because too many people I know follow me there, and my current living situation is kind of making me a bit more frightened and on guard for lack of a better description but I'm pretty sure none of you actually know me and if you do OH well my bad lol but I've been super gay here before and nothing bad has happened yet !
idk enjoy? I don't really love this (it looked cooler with the flat-wash imo) but it was experimental
