Face Painting
This coming weekend, I will begin filming the instructional video portions for my upcoming Virtual Workshops. It’s been a good 5 years since I’ve done one, and besides worrying about all of the things I have to do to prepare tools, materials and backgrounds for this, my thoughts have inevitably turned to another important consideration: How am I going to look? Yes, OK, I have a healthy-sized vain vein running through my body! SO, I call on the makeup artist who did the makeup for me in my previous videos, Doris Lew Jensen, to give me a “lesson”. You see, I’m imagining that I will be doing many videos in the next year and that I can certainly wield a makeup brush or two on my own behalf. Well, a full hour and….
…12 specifically designed makeup brushes later….
….I had a blueprint for beauty, and…
..I’m ready for my extreme closeup.
I’m so thrilled with my eye-popping eyes that after everyone else leaves work I decide to play “model session”
Yeah, I’m not expecting that America’s Next Top Model will be calling me anytime soon either….I’ll get back to painting my samples for my workshops now….

Simply stunning Melanie…you’re the epitome of beauty…inside and out, and especially through all that you create. Have fun with the videos!!

This was fun— how could anything with that many brushes not be anything but spectacular! I also re-read your last blog entry, and LOVED seeing the cushions you made from the fabrics from Marrakech.
Good luck with the videos in all of your gorgeousness.

Melanie – You look great in these pictures. You have a narrow face, so the “messy hair” look is right for you (don’t ever pull your hair back in a ponytail). Your fair hair/skin demands artistry in eye makeup, and your eyes look great in these pictures. You have lovely skin. Don’t let any makeup artist pile too much foundation on it. You don’t need that.
I’m looking forward to your Virtual Workshops.

Beautiful !
Looks natural, not too much.
Why don’t you use one of these for your profile (instead of the old one) ?!

Thanks! I’m using one for my Facebook profile. Interestingly, my fiance HATES these pictures. He thinks I look completely unnatural….

You are most definitely a purple person – the artist and scientist of the World are purple people – blue …cold colors, etc. To bad all the orange people have all the money!
I’m sure you mastered you own colors long long ago.

Now I know why I don’t have money! Just art! Thanks Larry
