Question from Rachel

Hi! I am (or at least was) a professional artist who has recently gotten MCS. I am selling off all of my oil paints, and I’ve dropped out of my graduate program in art. My question is, is it still ok to use:

any advice on how to continue to be an artist with this condition would be so helpful- art has always been my primary means of expression, and I’ve become extremely depressed with out being able to paint for fear of toxic exposure.

Blessings,

Rachel

Debra’s Answer

I’m not a professional artist, but I find it acceptable to use water-based pens and markets and Prismacolor colored pencils.
