Watching a guy make a Rembrandt master copy and he’s making his own oil paint, even lead white and vermillion which are poisonous. He mashes in the pigments in the oil with no gloves or mask and then leaves the tops off the fucking jars of raw pigment. I keep staring at the jars.

Wasn't solvent (brush cleaner) what did in Bob Ross? PPE isn't optional just because one is an artist... :/

I think so, given that he: 1. Shoved his whole fist in a huge bucket of solvent. 2. Banged the brush on his easel, spraying it everywhere and probably atomizing some to inhale. 3. Wiped it on his pants and shirt. He also used huge brushes for house painting so it was a lot.
