“Carnaval Face Painting”
By Luísa Santos

Hi Philadelphia,

First of all, thank youfor the teleseminar, it was most useful!

I would like to share with you my latest face painting experience… As I’ve mentioned before, Portugal is not big on face painting and it is very hard to get a gig here, especially if you’re working solo.

Well, we have a festivity here which is called Carnaval, when people all get costumes and paint their faces and go party! (similar to your Mardi Gras, I think).

This year, the company I work for invited me to paint at the shop where I work. It was not a payed gig, but it was an amazing opportunity to practise, hand out business cards and have LOTS of fun with children and grown-ups. I tried lots of designs, got photos for my blog and managed to put big, happy smiles on people’s faces.

I can see from early pictures of my work that I’ve done significant progress.

I surely have to thank you and your Face Painting Tips blog for it, as well as because you have been my teachers from the beginning. I have never attended a single workshop, because I can’t find any good ones here, but your tips have made my life so much easier

I hope that, some day, I’ll be able to attend your classes in the flesh and benefit even more from your experience. Here are some photos of an amazing day.
