Motherwalk 2008

paintedpersonalities — Wed, 07 May 2008 12:28:34 +0000

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!

Film Collection premiered at Sidewalk Film Festival

The film that I help out with SFX makeup at the beginning of the year, Collection, had its premiere at the Sidewalk Film Festival. It took place Saturday night at the Alabama Power building on 18th Street North. Clint Till, the director, was there along with the principal actors, the other (real) makeup artist, and assorted family members. I was pleased withteh look of the film. It looked like what I had envisioned from reading the script and seeing several of the parts being filmed, so that was good. Friends of mine saw the online trailer, but weren’t able to make the showing Saturday night. If Clint is able to have a another showing in town, I’ll publicize it here so folks who want to see it can see it. If you are interested in seeing the trailer, you can see it and several of the making of previews on Par Entertainment’s myspace page.
