Summer Body Painting

Here's an abstract I painted on a model I really like work with, Kate. It was done this summer while my friend Mark Reid was visiting.

Later I traveled to the World Body Painting Festival in Seeboden, Austria to be Mark's assistant. What a thrill, I love working with and for Mark who placed 5th overall in sponge and brush. I, a bit ill prepared and very nervously, competed in the face painting and simply wanted to have fun did not want to place last. I had fun and owe much of that to my really wonderful model. I placed 19th overall.

Spring Body Painting

Well I have been quite busy painting and the next two weeks will continue the pace.

I had a great day last week painting on the first day of spring - just some fun vibrant colors that played nicely when photographed against the backdrop of the new greens of spring. I'm looking forward to seeing all we accomplished.
