The Canadians have landed ......sort of!

Hello everyone.  Liz Small here, from Calgary in Alberta - Western Canada.  I'm a legal alien here......a Brit living amoung the cowboys! - Face and body painter (of 5-6 years), striving every day to become a better person and painter...not sure I succeed...but at least I have a go!

www.puttinontheglitz.ca is a small operation here in Alberta, to serve face painters in |Western Canada with the best our industry can provide us to do our jobs.  I try to stock as many products as possible and only those I would be happy using myself.  So, my basement glistens with glitter, face paints, vids, mags and the like....

I am also to the Western representative for the Canadian Association of Face and Body artists - which only means I get to meet the nicest people~!!!! -

Currently keeping my fingers crossed for my wonderful friend and colleague, Lucie Brouillard, who along with many other wonderful people will be competing in Seeboden today!  My thoughts and karma are with them.

I hope that I can be a bonus to this new forum...and am always more than happy to make new friends and contacts in our wonderful world!

Liz

Welcome.  Add my best wishes to yours for Lucie.  She was the instructor for a class that I took at the Convention in Orlando at the beginning of the year.  What a fantastic artist and a lovely person too.

Hi Liz... Welcome and I'm happy to see you on here!

Welcome to the board, eh.  Dorky right? Always wanted to say that, and the closest I get is to type it. Seriously, welcome.
     What type of work do you get up there? I'm in Georgia, so most of my work comes during the summer, usually in connection with the festivals and such. I'm probably wrong, but I would imagine the weather would prevent most of that, or severely shorten it. Is it mostly parties, and company work?
     I see you sell liquid paints, how do you like working with them compared to cakes and powders? I have never tried liquid, other than once in a dotter.
     Again, welcome.
