In New Guinea, they take their firedancing seriously.

Peruse this set thoroughly for amazing tribal bodypainting, beautiful people and evidence that money actually CAN grow on trees.

Finally got around to uploading, processing and Flickring my Artwalk at Utilikilts Show pics.

There’s also a great set here, including the shot above, by Chris Menges, a photographer friend of Kyle and Blue.

And a damn cool pic of the Elven Bikers from Hell here, by our DJ and photographer, Michael Holden.

Woot!

The article’s kinda dumbo, but it’s a pretty picture!

So psyched!

My kickass, sword-wielding friends Kyle and Blue, have agreed to be my bodypainting models for the Utilikilts show tomorrow!

Quickie sketch…

This is going to be FUN!

As a bodypainter, with all my shinyass metallic acyrlics-this humbles me.

Such spirit and beauty.

I’ll be bodypainting and showing my art at Utilikilts for the first thursday artwalk in October!

SO pysched! I’ve got a couple shoots this week with an amazing photographer, Fedora El Morro, with two of my favorite models, Rita and Courtnee, to feature in the show.

If you’re in Seattle, put it on the calender! Thursday, Oct 7th, 6pm.

Had a lovely dinner with my friends Rita and Ben, my mom and teh Samster. Mmmm…. Porkchops simmered in plum-nectarine-blueberry sauce with shitake baked rice(recipe courtesy of my awesome friend Sharon who is about to come out with her very own cookbook!), garden collards and garden salad. And a veritable plethora of desserts! I made a blackberry cobbler with some very fine and ginormous berries my mom brought, Rita brought two kinds of lemon birthday cake from her Bday celebration and Sam and I made chocolate chocolate mint chip monster cookies! Yum. Stuffed ourselves and then Ben and Sam made origami while I painted Rita’s lovely, pregnant belly.

Yay! Happy birthday Rita! And hurray for summer goodness…

More pictures of the dinner and the belly, here.

With my awesomely powerful Sunflower Hand!

Y’all may thank me now.

My friend Matt hired me to paint him a Cityscape shirt for his Seacompression outfit.

Love the way it turned out! He had fun dancing the night away in it and a lot of folks thought it was a real shirt! And I must admit, it’s nice to actually get PAID to make something beautiful once in a while.

The bellyflower opens the portal to a whole new Universe..

Painted the gorgeous(and soon to birth a baby girl) KC at the Little Red Studio Gold Show on friday. Felt good to get my paint on after a long and annoying hiatus.

Yay Universe Flower!
