You don't usually hear that one--not around here anyway: a cow flattened my camera.
I have never been one to dress up for anything, so my "uniform" has always been jeans and a t-shirt. However, that doesn't mean I want paint on my clothes. If I am working with watery acrylics or primers, and I know I'm bound to get paint on myself, I wear an apron or crap clothes. I also have paint shoes. They are really nice shoes that are as old as the hills and I don't care what gets on them. However, the only paint that's ever gotten on them was when I was painting the walls of a room with a roller, not paint from art.
Other artists come to my studios and they are aghast that I have no drips anywhere and meticulous with my materials. I don't do it "on purpose." It's just how it is with me. And I absolutely hate having any paint on my hands--this is why I hate doing ceramics! Ack!
