Fun for the Elderly

Elderly people also want to have some fun.  I feel happy when  an Adult Home calls for Party Art.  This is important.

Here are some of the people I painted this year at one of the Homes I go to.  The first guy, in particular, I remember year after year.  Ever since the first time that I painted him up as a Vampire, he looks forward to getting it again.  Special times to look forward to.  

















Okay.  Not the order in which I uploaded the pictures here, but at least I got them onto my blog.  Changes at Photobucket changed the way I can upload photos now, so it will take a bit of studying before I get it stuff posted just right.  

And life goes on

Child Play

Children seem so grown up these days.  So aware of what's going on around them.  Aware of what they're doing.  So what is it that is child-like?

Ir's the dreaming of things they haven't really experienced.  How to wink like a reptile.  Or present ourselves as 'Love'.  It's finding out how people respond when we throw Beauty in their face.  It's permission to be someone else just because we're wearing a mask:

Chanukah Party

I'm putting together a few of my Face-Paintings that I can use as Samples at Chanukah events.  I've been painting at several Chanukah Parties each year.
Some, like the Jewish Shield, were actually done for Chanukah Parties.  But others, like the Avatar, were not done at Chanukah Parties.  I just figured that they would look good for Chanukah Parties.  Mostly because they're Blue and White.  Like the Israeli Flag.

And look at this one ~ A lovely blue design when the girl's eyes are open.  And Suprise!  Eyes! when the girl's eyes are closed:

And here are a few Paintings that came out of me at big Chanukah Party.  A Lot of Children at the Party.  All requesting Big Things.  End of Party.  Still children wanting more paintings.  Personal evening appointment, so I couldn't even give my client the Option of hiring me for more time.

So what did I do?  I said that I had to leave, but everyone who was still wainting could get something quick ~ Just a dreidel, heart, or jewish star.  And we were  still thrilled with the paintings:

Carter's

This photo ~ it's the practicing that I did for my previous job for Carter's Osh Kosh Bgosh.
Good thing I did that, too.  Tedious as it was to make this design, i discovered that it only looked good if I painted the White Letters First.  Then the black shape around it.  Kept the White real white, and the letters real squared.

Business Card


I just designed a New Business Card.
More comprehensive than my previous ones.
I can use the same card for Caricatures, Balloons, and Glitter Tattoos in addition to Face-Painting.
That's a good idea.

I designed it in PhotoShop.  Middle of the night, I couldn't wait for the Office-Supply Store to open.  I'm all excited with them.  So I printed them out myself.  On different Colors of Cardstock.  Now I'm going to watch a movie while cutting them out by hand.
