An art sore refers to a painful inflammation of the skin caused by prolonged exposure to wet paint or other art supplies. There are several synonyms for this condition, including painter's rash, paint dermatitis, and pigment allergy. These terms are often used interchangeably to describe the same discomfort or irritation that can occur when artists come into contact with certain chemicals or substances. Symptoms of art sore may include redness, itching, and swelling of the skin, and in some cases, blisters or sores may develop. To prevent or minimize the risk of developing an art sore, artists should take precautions such as wearing protective clothing and gloves, and properly ventilating their workspaces.
