Our Face Painting designs are in the Chuggington Summer Annual!

The Chuggington Summer Annual was released today and now I can finally tell you all that our face painting designs for this popular CBBC programme are included on pages 124 & 125!

This project was an interesting one, with the challenge of meeting the design brief for the Chuggington Trainees - Koko, Wilson and Brewster, using only the colours blue, red, yellow and green. 

Here are the final designs from the Annual:

All photography was done at the studios of our friends Blueskies Photography. (http://www.blueskiesphotography.co.uk/)

Our photos from Halloween

The October Half Term was a busy assortment of work. We worked under marquees in beautiful gardens, did special requests for individuals, entertained at parties for children and adults and did a big promotional event for our local shop - where we were mobbed! LOL!

But firstly we started off with a training night to refresh our memories of some of the Halloween designs that only get dusted off once a year.

This was the view from the marquee at Westenbirt Heritage Gardens:


And here are some of the people we met and painted there:


Sharon joined the UWE students for their Halloween Party:


I did some special one off designs for people having parties -
For a James Bond party:


A unicorn (before the finishing touches of the costume, fake eyelashes and lipstick)


and a Vampire:


Then on Halloween itself, Sharon and I worked in my local NISA store to entertain our friends in Frampton Cotterell:


Hope to see you soon!

So much fun, so little time!

A big thank you to everyone who booked us during the summer! The Cats Whiskers team have had SO much fun!! :) We've been to parties, festivals, summer camps, fun days and open days all over the area in Bristol, Bath and the South West. So, my apologies for taking so long to update the blog - but there has just been way too much fun going on for me to catch up until now.

So, the children are back at school, the tree's are turning colour, nights are drawing in and we're really looking forward to Halloween!!

But before we get carried away with the witches and vampires, here are some of the highlights of the summer:

Camp Xtra workshop -

Private commission for a fancy dress party - quote from the client, "Thanks very much, it was a great success and was cool how realistic it looked. I'm sure that I'll be in touch again if another opportunity arises to be painted for some reason. It was great fun and just made the costume come alive."

Henna design for a holiday:

From South Gloucestershire library workshops:

Freshers welcome weekend:

Fake Tattoos for Fancy Dress

We get a surprisingly large number of calls from people wanting to be a personality at Fancy Dress events and needing a tattoo to complete the image!

I had one from a gentleman at the weekend wanting to be the Hit Man (Agent 47) for a Heroes and Villains party. This was the final result!

Other fake tattoos I've done for Fancy Dress have included a collection of Mel C tattoos and Rhianna!
