I’ll be out in Crestline Saturday morning at the Norma Livingston Ovarian Cancer Foundation Motherwalk 2008 painting. I’ll be there from 8:00 AM until the race is done. I’ll be painting faces and painting glitter tattoos for cash. In addition to the face painting and glitter tattoos, I’ll have Mike out with the airbrush painting airbrush tattoos too! Part of what we make will go directly to the foundation to help fund research on ovarian cancer.
The color for ovarian cancer awareness is teal. I have teal paint, teal glitter, and teal airbrush tattoo ink!

One of my grandmothers passed away from ovarian cancer in 1999. I have anecdotal stories that other aunts and great aunts may have also died from this. Unfortunately information about their passing away is over 40 years old, and people didn’t talk about that kind of cancer. So I know that due to family, I may be at risk for ovarian cancer. Please come out, see us, participate, and help raise some money for ovarian cancer research!

After I made the previous festival posting, I confirmed another date for a festival.

I’ll be at the Birmingham Farmers Market, for their Friends and Family Festival, this Saturday, August 25th, from 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM. The Farmers Market is located at 344 Finley Avenue West, Birmingham, AL, 35204. I’ll be there with face paints, temporary tattoos, henna, and the airbrush temporary tattoos. Come out and see us, and get something good to eat!

We’re going to be painting at 2 different events this Saturday. Both are open to the public, so come out and see us at either one.

The first event is a church carnival at Old St Paul Missionary Baptist Church in Bessemer. It is from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM. We’ll be offering face painting and hand painted temporary tattoos. There will be some picture taking with this carnival, and the church has also gotten some moonwalks for the kids to play in.

The next event is the the BBQ for the new rector at Church of the Holy Cross, Trussville. It starts at 4:00 PM, and goes until. I’ll be debuting the airbrush temporary tattoos. I’ve cut a custom stencil of the church’s cross to use on folks there, in addtion to the other tattoos stencils I have. In addtion to the face painting and temporary tattoos, there is also at least one moon walk scheduled to be set up. There’ll be lots of smoked BBQ, and the Band Drive South is going to play.

Rain or shine, it’ll be great!

We’ve added airbrushing to the mix here at Painted Personalities! Now available for parties, picnics, events, and occasions.  Airbrushed temporary tattoos that will last for several days, or airbrush face painting are here.  The debut of the temprary tattoos are going to be at the BBQ for the new rector at Church of the Holy Cross, Trussville.
