Try Vaseline or Crisco or baby oil or cooking oil  or even Pam non stick spray if you don't have any of those.  Work it well into your hands, then submerge them in warm water and scrub off the paint, using a washcloth or a nail brush if needed.  I learned this from poison control after my daughter painted herself very thoroughly with fingernail polish when she was younger.

now i have something else to do while i am not sleeping.

boringly, i have made 2.5 acrylic paintings. given sufficient lack of sleep, i may lose all sense of propriety and exercise poor judgment (that can't be the right spelling but the computer says it is) by posting photos of my work in the submissions thread.

I don't paint if I can't sleep. I might draw something, though.

I masturbate. Might as well have some fun whilst attempting to tire myself out.

Since I stopped taking my pills, I have troubles sleeping so I just lie there until I am asleep but I have troubles staying asleep.

Interesting. I only do monster or alien faces, but I do machines, robots, and expansive oddness-scapes, mostly.

I go for drives.  I don't draw or paint much most of my arty hobbies are noisy or have to be done outside

posted a lot of cmas vid links. it used to help me to watch them but now it doesn't.

tonight i just watched 2 videos and painted a canvas completely yellow. i wanted to see what happened if the light came from everywhere. usually it comes from the upper right hand side.

i am hoping that returning to work will get me back sleeping.

Nail polish? That sounds brutal  :zombiefuck:
my grandma told me she painted her lips with nail polish when she was younger and what a horrible mistake it was I can't imagine.
I hate nail polish.
