Painting on people

I am happy to report that I will be doing two new paintings this weekend!
One client has no idea what she wants, so we will discover that after she gets into the studio.
We can formulate an idea from almost anything. A favorite, book, hobby, occupation or locale.

The other is a cancer survivor who has been fighting it in one form or another for the last 26 years. She has just come off a round of chemo and has been given the all clear for now! Her hair is starting to grow back and she is delighted that it is coming in darker than before. We are painting her back with a sword and shield to commemorate her victory and warrior spirit.

She will be bringing a lovely pink drape to cover herself here and there. No need to be indiscreet just because you're naked! I'll let you know how it turns out.

Cheers, _ Kim

very cool! Do you know anything about henna tattooing? I would love to learn a good way to do a lasting detailed one. Veritas

Actually, I have not done much henna at all. I have tried it a few times but not to the point where I would consider myself any sort of authority. I have seen it done at weddings and I know it can be really beautiful.
