Phoenix Rising?

Actually, it had nothing to do with rising. It Has more to do with the fact that I couldn't sleep. So i thought I'd put my restless energy to good use.This took place at 1 o'clock am.  I just can't decide which version I like best. What do you think? The one with the full tail over the nose & mouth or the one with the thinner tail?

Inspiration from Friendly Folks

I was on my way into a party supply store when I notice a woman struggling to keep all of her Finding Nemo balloons in her SUV long enough to shut the hatch. So, of course I offered to help and she gratefully accepted. As we were tucking her balloons in my daughter very excitedly hopping up and down asked if she was having a Finding Nemo birthday party. She said she was and went on about how crazy her boy was about Nemo. I mentioned that I started painting faces and have been thinking I should learn how to paint a Nemo face. She joked that if I did I should let her know and she might hire me. Challenge accepted! I had just bought a new paint set & stopped to visit my fiancé, but he was out cutting grass so I took that opportunity to paint Nemo on my daughter. The first one didn't turn out the best since i only had the one brush, but later i painted another one that turned out better.
My daughter also wanted a heart shaped paw print on her face. (she had seen it when i was looking up ideas for face painting for a fundraiser for a local animal shelter).
Then by the end of the night my fiancé decided it was about time i paint his face. Arrrrr!

Practicing Masks & Faces

I just felt like trying out a Spiderman mask and full face paint on my daughter.

Then just for the fun of it made myself a tiger face.

Since the busy season is upon I my daughter and I have been having fun trying some new designs.











Welcome!

I've created this blog because many of the applications for the various craft venues that I am applying to often request a website. So, for the moment, this will act as my website. I have been just referring them to my Facebook page, but I feel this is a little more professional looking. I look forward to sharing my experiences and artwork with you!
