Hello from Michigan!

These old bones are tired!
« on: May 01, 2010, 07:11:32 PM »

Just got home about 10 minutes ago, from the fourth gig today! Oh my these old bones are so tired! Hmmmm wish I was 20 again! First gig this morning I got there 45 minutes early!  Started painting right away to dodge the rain drops.  So that put me ahead of scheduale. Second and third gig went great. I made over $160 in tips at the third gig. The fourth gig, was slow because the rain was moving in! It was at a grand opening of a race track.  The race was called early because of the storm that was brewing!  Hmmmm the owner came and paid me for the four hours I was to be there and said, go ahead and close shop and head for home "a storm is a brewin"  So I ended up painting only two hours there, BUT I was so glad to get home, my feet hurt, my wrists hurt and my poor back is killing me! Silly me I stood all day! Painted so many faces today I can't remember!  The most popular girl design was the peace sign with flowers, every where I went!  The second most wanted for little little girls was a rose design with tons of glitter!  And the boys well you guessed it number one was Spiderman!  And a close second was a snake face, then half skull faces.

Gina, have you ever tried putting two colors on your brush and twirling it in a circle...a light and a dark? Say like Red and yellow to make a peace sign? It is awsome looking!...if you haven't tried it, you should......as soon as you go around it with black and draw in the peace sign, it makes it look like the sunset!...it's cool and once the kids see it they love it....sorry, but i don't have any pics....

I want to try this.  Did you do it with a flat or a round brush Mollie?

I already tried it yesterday and it was fast and beautiful.  I used a flat brush across and pink and yellow section of my split cake and then did the peace sign in Metallix violet... beautiful and FAST.  Smiley  That's on a non wiggly arm.  If it's a wiggly 3 year old, the peace sign part might not be as fast.
