Last-minute Booking

I was coming home from an amazing long day of drawing FASHION SKETCHES at a Corporate Event in NYC ~ When I was contacted by a new Client.  That was just before I got on the LIRR Train to come home.  By the time the train 'landed' in Wantagh, I had booked a BALLOON Twisting Party for the next day ~ less than 24-Hours notice!

Happily scrambling around ~ getting travel directions, clothes, refreshing my BALLOON Supplies, making new Signs......  Barely slept before I ran into the 1-year-old boy's Party.  The Children were Wonderful.  The Babies were so... Babies!  The Adults were gracious and appreciative.  The BALLOONS were so much Fun ~ as always.  Oh ~ It felt like a Whirlwind of Happy Joy!

When I got home (since I'm already ready for tomorrow's booked-well-in-advance CARICATURE Event at an Assisted Living Center), I was able to develop some more ideas I came up with at today's BALLOON Party.  I'm building a knot-tying-assister and adding Heart Wands to my Go-to Sign.  And I put Business Cards into my Supply bag ~ hoping I don't forget them next time.

And Wow!  I'm still feeling sooo Happy.  My Client still thought of me ~ took the time to send me the following email: 

Thank you so much for today and on such short notice.  The kids loved you. 

 I hope I get around to checking out the Photos that I took at the Party.   Hoping I'll get a chance to post some on this blog.

Where Do My Ideas Come From ?

Not sure what I'm going to do with this yet ~ It's Probably not a good idea to paint a Fish Down the nose like this ~ but I was intrigued at this point in the Underpainting of my Tiger Face

A Cold Day

Here are a few of the Face Paintings that I created to be Quick and Simple. 
Just to set the people up to have something to Enjoy All Day ~ even though it was cold outside. 









Well.... let's call it Brisk.  It's only going to be getting Colder before it starts getting Warmer again. 
So we might as well Enjoy the beautiful trees and colors and autumn scents.  And fun wind ~ it wasn't freezing

It's Good to be a Face Painter

I needed Nutmeg Essential Oil, and I didn't have time to order any.  So my Dear Friend left me a bottle of Nutmeg in her mailbox ~ because she wasn't going to be home at the time that I was able to pick it up.

It's a good thing that I'm a Face Painter.  If you were a Face Painter, you'd know what I mean.  Because it was so easy for me to leave this appreciated Thank You Note on her door.  It felt so easy to quickly draw it up in my car.

She'll be able to use it tomorrow ~ Halloween.
