Images from the workshop

The Melbourne Museum is having a Body Art exhibition (runs until Feb 4, 2001) and as part of that, I have run a couple of how-to workshops on face and body-painting.

Below are a few of the images produced during the workshops.

Yeah scary dude! This is Robert, who was tirelessly helpful and enthusiastic and a willing canvas for testing things out.


Kate. Not nearly so scary - and with a penchant for water-lillies.


This is Kloe. Kloe has such gorgeous eyes it's practically a crime to cover them up, but a scary dragon has to do what a scary dragon has to do.


.. but even dragons have to blink sometimes. (One very excited young lady - showing how much joy a little paint can generate.)
