just wait till you start holding your paint-and-turpentine-covered brushes in your mouth without thinking about it. who needs pot.
to quote the MIGHTY JEROME WITKIN, one of my teachers, JEROME: YOU NEED TO LOVE AND UNDERSTAND YOUR PAINT AND THE WAY IT WORKS. THE OLD MASTERS. LIKE VAN GOH. HE WAS SO INFATUATED WITH HIS PAINT...HE USED TO EAT IT. ME: Jerome...uhhh...he went insane and killed himself because of that. JEROME: HE WAS THAT MUCH CLOSER TO HIS ART BECAUSE HE DID. ME: Did you just tell us to eat our paint and go insane? JEROME: SEEMS TO WORK, DOESN'T IT?
also, if you ever take a color photography printing class, prepare for a few involuntary mushroom trips from handling the photo paper.
no, I legit thought I was going to die last night. When I was cleaning up the painting stuff I washed my hands, but I just used regular soap instead of thinner so there was still a bunch of oil paint on my fingers, and then later that night I started subconciously biting my nails like I always do and about a half hour later my whole throat felt like it was closing up.
So yeah, eating paint, not all it's cracked up to be.
