Happy 2014! Look for us in the new year

Happy 2014! I hope your holidays have been great, and your new year is off to an even better start!

We are starting off the year bright and early on Saturday January 11th at the Red Shoe Run! We’ll be there from 7AM to 9AM with face painting and airbrush tattoos for the kids and those who are young at heart. This is a fundraiser for the Birmingham Ronald McDonald House. If you aren’t familiar with it, please check out the link. The Ronald McDonald House offers a place for families of children who are receiving medical treatment. Come out early Saturday morning and help out a great cause!

Halloween 2013 is over, but the weekend continues

Thanks to everyone who called and messaged about Halloween! It was lots of fun, and all the events were awesome! Here is a pic from Halloween day, I just had to have something to wear for it.

Happy Halloween

Elaine’s Halloween face

Today I’ll be out at a neighborhood party, then afterward I’ll be at Crestwood Coffee Co. painting sugar skull faces for folks headed to the Dia de los Muertos Festival! Come on out, I have appointments booked, but openings after 4:15. Danny has good food and drinks available, and the coffee shop is welcoming, so if you want to come hang out, get a cup of coffee or something a bit stronger, and eat some amazing pastries, please do!

Fall state fair in full swing, with a few days left

Please stop by before the end of the fair and say hi! As you enter from the amphitheater, my booth is along the fence on the left. Its next to the pina colada booth, across from the midway elephant ears/funnel cake stand and the merry go round. Look for the tie dyed flags on the corners of the booth, they fly above the front!

Oak Mountain State Fair, Fall 2013

Painted Personalities is going to be at State Fair that starts on September 26, 2013! We’ll be in Pelham at the Oak Mountain Amphitheater for all 10 days of it. On week nights the fair will open at 5:00 PM, and on Saturdays and Sunday it will open at 1:00 PM. In addition to the face paint, airbrush tattoos, and glitter tattoos, I’ll have henna there, too. I’ll have pictures to share as the fair goes along.

Fultondale Founders Day 2013

This Saturday is the Fultondale Founder’s Day festival at Black Creek Park. I’ll be face painting for the Fultondale Arts Council at their booth from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Come on out and hear good music, see cool arts and crafts vendors, get face painted, and enjoy the day! There is only a 20% chance of rain tomorrow, so it should be a wonderful day to be outside. Fultondale is only 15 minutes north of downtown Birmingham on I-65. The Arts Council has a great set of directions to the park on their web page. Its going to be a busy day, so join us, and thank the Fultondale Arts Council for having Painted Personalities there for you!

Revising the web site

Hi folks, welcome to my newly revised web site! I’ve been working to update my site to show you some more of the services that Painted Personalities offers. I still need to get more pictures up here, but its a new look for the site. If you have any questions about what you see here, please contact me!
