I'm really pleased to be flying back across the pond and teaching at this year's convention in Las Vegas. For those of you who don't know me, I graduated from college here in London in 2004. I set up my own freelance make-up and body painting business, and after a lot of hard work I've now got a really good client list, and have done various body painting projects for television advertisements, magazines, fine art prints, cd music and book covers. I also won the 2007 brush and sponge category at the World Bodypainting Festival in Austria when I painted with my good friend and fellow artist Carly Utting. And I was thrilled to win again this year in July but in the SFX category. I live in Greenwich, London with my beautiful cat Merlot, my little gecko Betty Wrinkle, and the tiny terrapins Bob and Margaret!! But I will be leaving them behind to come and meet up with a lot of old friends, and look forward to making lots of new one!
I'm teaching a pre-class on how to put together the perfect body paint. We will cover how, and where, to start a design, and everything in between. Including blending techniques, point of light, highlights, shading, adding fine details and sealing your work. This will be a hand's on class so pick up your brushes and come along and join in the fun!! :) I'm also putting together a useful folder with lots of hints and tips and photographs for everyone who registers for the pre-class. If anyone has any specific questions about the class, please feel free to get in touch!! You can check out examples of my work on my website www.getmadeup.com Below is a youtube link to a body painting event that I did a couple of weeks ago in Central London. I had a marvellous team helping me and we had a 3am start, as we had to get the models ready for the busy rush hour at 9am. It was tiring but great fun, and the client was very pleased with the end result. Have a look, I think it's very entertaining!! :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z72lRLfpuhA Looking forward to meeting everyone, Best wishes, Carolyn :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Face Painting and Body Art Association."
