Today, I was vigorously putting primer on my canvas for a beginning painting class. I accidentally sprayed specks of primer on the very dark painting to the right of mine. The painter is in an advanced class. She's been working on this one all semester. There's no one to her right. FML

Last time I checked, that's why you don't "vigourously apply primer." ESPECIALLY around other peoples work. You were basically asking for an accident.

YDI, and FHL. You shouldn't have been "vigorously" putting on primer to the point where you're spraying it everywhere. Learn how to not act like a jackass in the studio, and until you do, stay the hell away from other people's work.

Careless asshole. Fess up instead of looking for someone to blame, you coward.

You should've been a lot more careful, especially of you were already aware of how close her painting was to yours and that they were working on it for a long time. Besides, other than people being mad at you, not much of an fml, more like a fhl :/

as a painter myself of many years and of all the mishaps experienced along the way - even a "dark" painting accidentally sprayed with stark white primer can be easily fixed or incorporated into the piece. anyone who knows how art truly works will tell you that an accident, be it your own or another's, is not the "FFFFUUU I HAFTA START ALL OVER WTF" some feel it is, but is rather an opportunity to take the mishap and make it a masterpiece. on the other hand, its ******* PRIMER. IT DRIES. if she knows ANYTHING about painting, she'll know to wait until it dries, and paint over the white parts so it returns to its former state, and take up the place to her left to give you some space. if she flipped on you, shes a ******* n00b, not Van Gogh, so you earned yourself a FYL and the right to tell her to shove her "semester long" waste of acryllic up her high-and-mighty ass. good day to you, and good luck with whatever you plan to do with the canvas after you finish vigorously priming it.

Wouldnt the other painter just go over the primer when it dries?

fake your own death? there is literally no other way of getting out of this one

I hope you are ready for the consequences of messing up her painting and I hope for your sake the specs weren't noticeable. You should apologize

People like you piss me off to the max. I have had this happen to me before and the whole situation could have been avoided if the other person wasn't so ******* careless. You are a dick.

YDI for painting like a child and they deserve it for not covering their work when not around.
