About Me

I am a Balloon Artist, Bubbleologist and Face and Body Painter, but can also do temporary tattoos, glitter tattoos, henna, Jagua, special effects and glamour makeup - please click on the links at the left for more details.

I was sponsored by Treasure House Make Up  for London Jewelery Week 2009, and demonstrated for them at the International Makeup Artist Trade Show (IMATS) in London, January 2010, where I painted the following design:

I have had my work published in The Sun, Bizarre Magazine, Ripley's Believe It Or Not Blog, trendhunter.com, and many other fashion and trend blogs during early 2010.

My work can be seen in the upcoming film "Hard Shoulder", and in a music video for "The Legion of Many". I am also featuring in the latest advert from Lidl!

I have been facepainting since 2002, firstly only at charity events and family parties and learning through books and videos, then after some top professional tuition from the London School of Facepainting (http://facepaint-uk.com) I achieved their Hygiene Certificate, and went on to pass the strict entrance requirements of FACE, the UK Face Painting Association. I have also taken classes with some of the best face and body painters in the world, including Mark Reid, Alex Hansen, the Wolfe Brothers and Lynne Jamieson. I am covered by Public Liability insurance of £5 Million, I have an Enhanced CRB check.
