Dragon Dance Video from the Face & Body Art International Convention (FABAIC) 2008

Nearly a year ago I travelled over to Florida to be an instructor at FABAIC and part of the amazing experience I had over there involved taking part in Bodies Alive! This was a performance involving lots of body painting, dance, culture and much more.

I wrote about this soon after I got home: http://helen-at-cats-whiskers.blogspot.com/2008/06/body-painting-for-bodies-alive-at.html

The performance was filmed but soon after the film became lost and we thought we would never see it - however Christopher Agostino, whose idea the show was, has tracked it down and it is now available to see!!!

I was involved in the Dragon Dance team and we had to go onstage during the dance and transform our "peacock" into a dragon. (I'm the one painting the orange model on the left!) Here's the link to the video of the Dragon Dance: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hua8L_tQoto

The singing faces were utterly fantastic and ridiculously funny. :)

I hope you enjoy.

Cats Whiskers out & about this Saturday!

Let Sharon paint your face on Saturday from 10:30 - 4:30 at Cherry Lodge Farm, Bristol Road, Iron Acton for their first open day of the season. There will be lamb feeding at 10am, 12pm, 2pm and 4pm, a bouncy castle and a really tasty BBQ!

Alternatively, if you'd rather have a balloon model, head on over to The Mall, Bristol (aka The Galleries) for their RewardMe Card launch day promotion. Len will be creating amazing balloon models for you to take home between 10am and 4pm.

Have a great weekend!

Too busy face painting to take photos!!

We have had a fabulous couple of weeks working hard to entertain people and assist in promotions with face painting, balloon modelling, temporary tattoos, workshops and henna. So busy in fact that we've not been able to take many photographs to show you!

We have entertained at birthday parties with face painting, balloon modelling and even a casualty and wounds workshop!

We have face painted at promotional events for Clevedon Children's Centre, Tescos Metro Staple Hill and in Villa Park for the Aston Villa versus Hull match! The Villa Park football event was incredibly busy but really amazing fun!

We have partied with the students at the May Ball creating delicate eye masks for the girls and obviously painting one or two spidermen and tigers for the boys. ;)

We've undertaken a private Henna booking and private training workshops.

And we've had a slightly more cultural moment face painting at Cheltenham Jazz Festival.

Here are the three pictures the team have managed to take that were in focus! LOL!
