FACE Conference - Monster Award

Last weekend the FACE (Face Painting Association) Conference was held in Dawlish, Devon. The conference starts with the associations AGM and then involves the members in many demos, business seminars and competitions.

On the Friday evening after dinner we have a quiz and play face painting games and I also got to paint my friend and fellow entertainer, Dave Hickory. http://www.davehickory.co.uk/
Dave had spent most of the day creating a stunning Balloon Portcullis.

I was asked to do a demo on Clown's and Jesters - to keep with the weekends theme of the Medieval.

I came second in the Monster Competition which was sponsored by Dauphines of Bristol and received an engraved plate, a certificate and a voucher to go shopping! :)
Thanks for Sam from Charles Fox who was my lovely model!

On the Saturday evening we had a Medieval Gala with amazing entertainment and everyone in costume. Here I am in my Medieval Gown and I also painted Adrian from Snazaroo as an Evil Jester!



On Sunday we painted most of the children who came to the hotel for Mothers Day lunch. This young lady challenged me to paint a goth style face that matched her black, white and teal outfit so we settled for a skelebat design which she was really pleased with.



All in all a fantastic weekend with lots of new ideas shared!
