This as-told-to essay has been adapted from a conversation with Sophie Rae, a 27-year-old graphic designer and artist, who lives in both Boston and New York City. It has been edited for length and clarity.
I'm a graphic designer as my paid 9-to-5, and I also freelance graphic design on the side. I've been painting for around 10 years, too. I sell prints and original paintings whenever I can.
