Using a paper nose taped over my actual nose!

For this face paint portrait of Marilyn Monroe I had to paint her nose higher than my own nose. If you look close you will find two sets of nostrils, one mine and the other hers. I used a baw filter to make the effect complete.

Just some favorites from the past :]

You must be willing to get ugly if you want to make art!

This BORG Queen turned out great I think. I even put black makeup directly into my eye so that it would get under my contact lenses and darken the eye. I couldnt see well, but it gave the desired effect. I dont recommend this as it stings and is likely not good for your eye.

This will give you an idea how I do what I do.

I had alot of trouble getting the paper horns to stick to my head. I was hot and sweaty and the tape was useless. I became very frustrated until I had the idea to use peanut butter! I put a blob of Skippy peanut butter on each horn and they stuck to me great! Yay!

After painting Carmen Miranda I was in the mood for banana's! I usually don't eat them in one bite!
