A Thursday night at S@mple in Richmond Va

Here are my 2 favorites from S@mples body paint night. Leopard spots with black glitter is always fun :)

As I was having fun with this linear design, she asked me if I could incorporate her boyfriends name into it.

No Sweat...

This is a face paint practice for a heat and sweat experiment I did for an outdoor event. Holds up even after 2 hrs of working in the yard in the sun! There is a product you can use to prevent sweating underneath the paint, but it wasn't necessary today :)

Designs for Men too!

I don't get to paint a lot of guys, but one of my favorite male models was nice enough to let me practice multiple designs on him for an event he was attending :) Thanks Jason!

 The upper chest design was inspired by the shape of a squid ;) Awwww, cute huh?

And Jason is only 1/2 Angel so he just got one wing that I finger painted instead of using a brush.

A final simple piece to wrap up the look, swirly vibrations.

Favorite body paint of the month...

This is my favorite photo for the month of July. This is Alexandra from the Return of the Curls show. I love how she is ready for the beach, including a wig and body paint! This just proves that ANY time is the PERFECT time to wear body paint ;) Come get some...

Ftera photo shoot

I don't get to paint many guys, so this was exciting ;) I did the paint and make-up for Elizabeth's shoot.

Return of the Curls fashion show

These are my favorites from the fashion show Return of the Curls where I painted 10 runway models. 

 This was one of my favorite paint jobs!

 Jameson Deloach ran the fashion show and asked me to make broad strokes w 1-3 colors in mostly geometric patterns.

Each model was painted with colors to match or accentuate their outfit, accessories and/or make-up.

Ftera photo shoot

I did the face paint and provided some props for this curious photo shoot. Leyla is the model, photographed by Elizabeth Bowie. See more of Beth's work here: www.elizabethbowie.net
