artist horror stories

One artist horror story is about an artist who was commissioned to paint a large mural in a public space. The client kept changing their mind about what they wanted, making the artist redo parts over and over. It was a nightmare of a project as the artist had to invest a lot of extra time and materials without extra pay.

In some artist alleys, there are stories of artists being harassed by other exhibitors. For example, an artist might be doing really well and attracting a lot of customers, and a jealous neighboring exhibitor starts spreading rumors about the quality of their work or their business practices. This creates a hostile environment for the artist, and it's truly a horror story in the context of the artist alley.

The story of Vincent van Gogh could be considered in a way. His mental anguish was so great that it led to his self - harm and ultimately his death. His paintings, while beautiful, also seem to carry a sense of his inner turmoil which can be a bit horror - like. Another is the case of Hieronymus Bosch. His works are filled with strange and often terrifying creatures and scenes, and it's said that he may have been influenced by his own dark visions or experiences.

There was a case where a client didn't follow the after - care instructions properly. They went swimming right after getting a new tattoo. As a result, the tattoo got infected, and the client blamed the artist for it. But in reality, it was the client's own negligence. This kind of situation can be really frustrating for tattoo artists as their reputation is at stake.

One horror story could be about the pressure they faced during their peak. They had to constantly tour and perform at a high energy level. There were likely times when they were physically exhausted but still had to push through shows. Maybe there were issues with the stage setup once, like some malfunctioning equipment that could have caused a dangerous situation during a performance.

There was an artist who was commissioned to create a mural in an old, abandoned building. As he worked, he began to feel a presence. Tools would go missing and then reappear in strange places. He saw shadowy figures in the corners of his vision. When he finally completed the mural, it had a life - like quality that was disturbing. People who saw it said they could feel the despair and horror that the artist must have felt while painting it.

Maybe to entertain their colleagues during breaks. It's a fun way to pass the time and share some spooky experiences from their work.

Allergic reactions are quite common. Like when a client doesn't disclose their allergies and then has a bad reaction during makeup application. Another one is running out of products in the middle of a job. For example, if a makeup artist is doing a full face of makeup and suddenly realizes they don't have enough foundation left. It can be a disaster.

Some tattoo artists have horror stories about clients who haggle over the price right in the middle of the tattoo session. It's really unprofessional and can be very distracting. One artist said a client started arguing about the price when he was halfway through a large back piece tattoo. It made the whole process very unpleasant.

One horror story could be a makeup artist having to deal with a client who has extremely sensitive skin but didn't disclose it. The makeup artist used the usual products and the client had a bad allergic reaction right before an important event. It was a nightmare to try and fix the situation quickly.
