Good (morning?) everyone!
Once again, super late night post. It is currently almost 12:30am. I swear, I AM LOVING this whole blog thing. Maybe I just love to talk? Who knows!
Today I began my new Alice in Wonderland theme. It was requested that I revisit this theme (I also did it last year). I think it's a great idea! I am so excited to see how much my mind and creativity has grown since I last featured this theme on my page. So I decided to kick it off with a BANG with an almost four hour body painting session.

This will be a short blog post, but sometimes, at least I think, it's more fun to see the process, than just the end result alone! Personally, I love to see the the middle parts of a piece of art. Why? Maybe because it's just a reminder of how far you came when creating that piece. I think its incredible how much of a difference color makes. As you can see, everything started as just an outline. You wouldn't even know what they WERE until they were filled in with body paint. After staring at a piece of art for so long, you have a tendency to forget that you started out with a blank canvas. You get so used to seeing it, that you need to step away and come back, or take progress photos, to really see the beauty in it.
Here is pretty early in the process! Alice is complete, other than her clothing that still needs to be colored. In the other photo, all characters are complete, they just need outlining and details. The frame was in the middle of being painted.
And complete! Photos from all angles of the painting.
This is not a tattoo! I created this completely out of body paint and eyeshadow. So, thank you to those who have been saying it is a tattoo, but it is not, haha. It would be a cute one, though, for someone who wanted a very large piece!
I plan on having some cool characters done this upcoming week, as well as some new videos for them :) It is only April, but I am desperately missing Halloween... So, keep these upcoming videos in your mind for a possible cute halloween look as well!!
