ORIGINAL: MysticsLily For you Dominant folk - do you think you would get the same satisfaction from the living art work of design -whether its actualy pictures or just swirling doodles - that you would from the written word? And lastly - what about washable crayola markers? Would the knowledge that the ink is washable lower the impact of the skin writing for you? Miss Lily Thanks, Lily.. I get a lot of satisfaction from creating living art -- in fact, we talk with the boys we interview about their willingness to be living canvases. I work in temporary piercing, branding, and cutting, as well as marker work, and I love the whole aspect of the living canvas. Washable markers are a great find. Even permanent markers are temporary on the skin, though (just check that the ones you're using are non-toxic as well)... sweat, goat's milk soap, and a loofah will take them right off. The only problem we've ever had was with latex paint -- my daughter didn't realize that people with a latex allergy will react to latex paint, even in small amounts, and she occasionally uses diluted latex to fill in large drawings, which set off a friend of hers. Not a lesson she will soon forget! (Oh... and many enamel paints and oil paints are toxic!!! Check a list carefully for toxic ingredients.) Calla Firestorm
