My Body Painting was showcased in the Seamz2BStreetz flash fashion show!

I was asked by Stephanie Raymond of LezBReaL Fashionz to be one of the lead designers in her Seamz2BStreetz, https://www.facebook.com/seamz2bstreetz?ref=br_tf , which was a showcase of local and upcoming artists in a "flash mob" like fashion show on Newbury St. in Boston! It was on June7th and we had a blast, the public on Newbury St. loved the show!

Here's some photos of my team and I painting the models, I will post more soon when I get some of the photos taken by the professional photographers and I'll write more about the process in my next post.

Mardi Gras Body Painting



Last month I had another wonderful body painting collaboration with photographer Kyaunna Hall of KFRESH Photography and model Dom Niqué! This was my first time painting Dom Niqué.

I was inspired by a Mardi Gras themed face painting that my friend and fellow face & body painter Milly Henry created on me at the New England Face & Body Artists Group Jam in February and I had some beads from a Mardi Gras birthday dance party for DJ Micky Grouse that I went to that same week.

Kyauna is hosting her 2nd R&B and Poetry Slam Networking Event II on Friday April 18th at Maggys Lounge 609 Washington Street • Quincy, MA 02169. I will be performing some of my mixed media Poetry/Songs and I may add something else to the mix! Kyauna will have some of her photography on exhibit and for sale, including some photos from our body painting sessions, come on by if you are in the area!

 Asha was the 1st in this body painting series, she wanted me to paint her to start off the first in her series of birthday photos to chronicle her growth over the next 10 years.  We had a great time catching up and are both looking forward to more body paintings to celebrate her special day!
