What junk do you eat/drink while painting/sculpting

[Master of fact]

So...... Topic

I have a supply of ASDA brand Gummy bears, its like eating fruit flavoured soft wax. I drink water Note dont put water near your paint water......... yes i have drank it before...........
lol

I don\'t eat anything, as I would risk getting fragments of food on my brush. I like to have a cold beer, or a cup of coffee, or a glass of whiskey though.

 

[alextheartist]

I eat babies and drink blood

Not really..


Normally if I am painting I drink fruit juice.. if I am making stuff energy drink (cant paint when ive drunk it..), food wise, ususally if I am painting at night cereal..

I go through about 3 cans of Amp energy drinks and a glass or two of JD during my painting sessions.

Whiskey ey. Whats your poison. Mine is Bushmills( Im from N.Ireland so its local and cheaper!)

If I get to choose, I\'ll have a Macallan, but it\'s expensive stuff, so mostly I have something cheaper, like Famous Grouse.

Friends(and wife dont let me drink too much though as IMO is better neat and makes me a bit :flame: after a few.......

I\'ll usually have a glass or two when I have a deadline to keep and do long sessions. It keeps me calm. But too much, and you start painting like a.... well like someone who\'s had too much to drink. :drunk:

i like scotch, scotchy scotchy scotch. and usually eat a sweet and salty nut bar.

go ahead and make your jokes but i like my sweet and salty nuts. lol

 

[waghorn41]

I just eat chocolate...

Tea or Coke to drink. Sometimes with some Gibson\'s 12 year old mixed in to the latter.

For food, I\'ll usually not eat, for the reason given above... I don\'t want food bits in my brushes.

I\'ll have either tea (which tends to get cold rather quickly), or maybe a beer or a glass of Bushmills. Depends on my mood and what I got in the house at the moment. Then I don\'t find too much time to paint, so becoming an alcoholic isn\'t an issue.
No food for me as well. Brushlicking and bits of food don\'t mix well, and depending on the food, greasy fingers aren\'t that hot on my minis, either.

Good point! Even if you don\'t touch the actual mini while painting, it\'s unnecessary to get grease on your brushes, tools, paint pots etc. And you always run the risk of getting it on the miniature as well, of course.

I have noticed a slight slip while holding brush and eating food...... hmmm so should you eat while painting!!! It couldnt be worse painting drunk........:drunk:

 

[evil tendencies]

I only drink water out of a 1 gallon bottle, which I keep on the FLOOR, safely away from paint.

If I eat, I\'m usually taking a break, so it\'s whatever we are having at the moment. Stir fry, usually, because I\'m painting around dinner.

 

[lizcam]

Water or soda and I don\'t eat while I paint. I;\'d never get anything done if I drank. What an I talking about? I never get anything done anyway.:drunk:

I never eat while I paint and I forget to drink.. Guess I\'m boring when it comes to this

 

[gohkm]

Absolutely nothing. I\'m terrified of mistaking my paint water for a real drink, or of getting crumbs of food all over what I\'m trying to paint.

Makes two of us, so you\'re not alone!

Beer, here (Guiness or Beamish) or coffee, and I never eat while painting. Have enough trouble keeping shavings/filings out of the paint, much less food
