It’s “do a grouch a favor day!” For today I of course had to paint one of the most well known grouches, Oscar!

Believe it or not, I have actually received calls from clients requesting that we please provide them with a friendly face painter, because in previous years when they’ve hired through other companies, they have gotten GROUCHY artists who are not nice to the kids.  Yes, it’s true!!  There are even people in THIS profession who do not like their jobs!  Crazy, I know.  Grouchy entertainers make for funny Homey the Clown skits, but are not recommended for actual celebrations. These people really should find a new line of work, because our job is to bring joy to kids!

Happy Hippo Day!  I can honestly say I’ve never painted a hippo! So there you have it…my first ever hippo painting!

Don’t have a valentine?  That’s okay! It’s not the only holiday to celebrate today anyway…today is Cream Filled Chocolates Day!! Get out there and treat yourself to one of those heart shaped boxes of cream filled chocolates! Or better yet, inhale a package of Oreos over a good movie!

This one took a lot of subtle color differences to achieve the texture of an Oreo! When the light hits an Oreo just right, it has almost a metallic blueish color to it.  So I started with a really dark brown mixed with a pearl blue!  I then added the depth and highlights of the texture with shades of black and lighter browns. Mmm…you can almost taste it!

Happy White Shirt Day!  It took a few days of convincing before my main man 9 year old Sam agreed to be painted for this one, but once we got going he loved it!  I’m wishing I had done a video as the giggles when the kabuki brush tickled were the BEST! Haha!

So, I want to thank Sam for letting me use his cute self to paint my first ever shirt body paint! I wanted to add more folds and things in the sleeves and shirt itself but, well, little boys can only sit still for so long! (and my basement studio is a cold place to sit with your shirt off!) He was a great and patient model! 🙂 Here’s a little closer view:

Well, today is apparently umbrella day!

Unfortunately in February in Minnesota, we rarely need to use umbrellas for either rain or to shade us from the sun, as it is typically cold and dreary!  But, today I can stare longingly at the calendar and count the days until April Showers come and bring May Flowers!!

Got a party coming up and you need some activities that are just as fun indoors as outdoors?  Face painting is the perfect thing for you! Contact us today to book your artist!
