OBJECTIVES:
To help new face painters get their businesses up and running
To help new face painters with technique and designs
Practice for everyone by painting the children in the park
TIME:
3rd Sunday of the Month 12:30 – 3:30 during the warm months. During the cold months we will not hold the jam unless we find an alternate inside location
No jam in December
LOCATION:
Alexander Park – 800 Old Snellville Highway, Lawrenceville, GA 30044
At one of the two pavilions near the parking lot
I will check on the Friday before to see if the pavilions are reserved and if they are the alternate location will be as follows:
Grayson Park – behind the Grayson Courthouse
Address of Courthouse:
475 Grayson Parkway, Grayson, GA 30017
At one of the two pavilions
MONTHLY AGENDA:
Come early and set up so that we can start at 12:30
12:30 – 1:00 Business questions, concerns, issues
1:00 – 2:00 Design of the Month – the new face painters will choose a design they would like help with at the next jam. Experienced painters will help new painters with input on technique and design for the theme of the month
2:00 – 3:30 Paint the children – practice for everyone. If there are no children then painting will be on practice heads or each other. Practice the theme of the month or paint what you like.
Each month, let Nancy Peterson (404 797-5454) know if you would like to attend so that she can inform you of any location changes for that particular month
AUGUST THEME: Butterflies of all shapes and sizes

Out jam at Alexander Park was fantastic. Nice mix of experienced painters and new painters. It was great to meet people I didn't already know and to see other face painting friends. We had plenty of children to paint as the pavilion we used was about 5 feet away from the playground. Come and join us next month on September 20th - our theme will be Animals and Under the Sea Creatures.
Alexander Park – 800 Old Snellville Highway, Lawrenceville, GA 30044
At one of the two pavilions near the parking lot (hopefully the one directly behind the playground).

I wish you were closer too, Sherry - I am going to try to upload some photos. None of these designs were painted by me. There was one new one for me that I would have loved to photograph, but the Dad wouldn't let me take a photo. Boo Hoo

Most parents seem happy to give permission for photos. But then when it's that one face painting picture you've been wanting and they say no. Or the child hates being photographed and runs off.  |

Thanks Sherry: We did learn quite a bit. We concentrated on mostly one thing, Butterflies. We used both paints and powders and different tools. Regarding the photo. I had painted something that I really didn't want to paint but it turned out good and I really wanted a photo -- but, of course the dad didn't want the photo taken. Now I am going to have to try to reproduce it.
