A new year and a new blog! Whoo-hoo!
I’m a face and body painter and I do so much other stuff related to art – murals, signwriting, glitterart, henna and, of course, teaching the art at my school of face painting and body art.
I’ve been painting faces and bodies for over 23 years now since my children were born. I started like so many of us – at the local NCT fund-raising event. I then got completely hooked. Face painting led to body painting, then it was onwards and upwards!
Just for today, here is a link to a book which is full of pages and pages outlines of bodies. It means there is always a ready sketch book for you to quickly get your ideas down on to paper. http://en.top-model.biz/index_en.html I recommend a pencil case with some colouring pencils, preferably the ones which are water smudgable! Caran d’Ache is a make I remember. Here is the Swiss site, but I know they are available all over. http://www.carandache.com/m/index.lbl
