I've been thinking about it for awhile so I finally bought a menstrual cup. Being an artist I'm always thinking of new things to do and I think im going to collect my blood,dry it, and turn it into oil paint.
This is legit and not a joke.
Has anyone done this before?
Any tips on what to do or what not to do?
Yes, this has been done by other disgusting people, too. You're very late to the concept.
I've seen them do it while it's wet though, im talking about drying it out. I don't think it's gross, it comes from my body.
It's a contaminant. No sane person wants someone else's bodily fluids on shit. No sane person has trouble understanding why this is disgusting.
I agree with you
Although, I suspect it could be for a personal project, something that would probably have meaning to her
I still think it would end up smelling and rotting after a while though, right? Wouldn't there be lots of bacteria to fester? Unless she's planning to burn it or something
I'm not sane lmao.
I just want to be able to explore different things in life, no matter how gross.
I am being safe, the only person who will come into contact with the blood will be me.
So does urine and feces. That doesn't make it not gross or at all sanitary.
It doesn't stay red though. More brownish.
It's been done before, and using blood was somewhat common in parts of the world as a paint pigment.
So to was tanning human skin into leather and using it to make book covers and other "light and soft" leather goods like gloves, etc.
Menstrual blood is good face paint for a "girls only" party dancing naked under the full moon. Every day makeup has always been a bit stupid. Get primal, get earthy, smell the crisp midnight air; dance and sing naked with utter abandon in the moonlight. You don't need tattoos. Menstual blood can make cool mystical symbols on your bum, or squiggle lines and dots on your arms and back.
No, you’re nasty and there’s all sorts of harmful bacteria in period blood
Menstrual blood comes from the sterile uterus and contains no harmful bacteria.
The uterus absolutely, 100% is not sterile. If you actually understand what that word means then you really should know this.
Granted there have been some challenges to the sterile womb hypothesis in recent years but the findings are not enough to completely refute it.

There is no health risk to painting in menstrual blood, distasteful as you may find it.
Try it lol and tell me how it is
It sounds fun but if it smells or whatever that'll be gross
Got a t shirt that says "it's that time" it was done like an old fashion tie dye and guess what was used as one of the colors. Can you say, been there, done that, got the t-shirt. No smell, nothing more than a blood stain on any piece of clothing.
