The following is an entry sent in for our monthly Silly Farm Supplies Competition!
“Lines, Dots and Determination!”
Sent in by Harmony Roth Shabtai
My name is Harmony Roth Shabtai and I am a makeup artist and face & body painter from Israel.
I began body painting and face painting on 2004 and before that never drew.
If anything, I thought I have no talent.
All that changed for me when in 2005 I went to do body paintings in a festival named boombamela (http://www.boombamela.co.il/site/gallery.php?g=12 ) where the atmosphere is so light and relaxed- and fell in love with face and body paintings.
Since then I took some private painting lessons, added face painting to my makeup artistry, and in 2007 went to the amazing body painting festival (http://www.bodypainting-festival.com/ ) in Austria to have fun, meet people and compete.I came in the middle and enjoyed myself so much!!!!
This art has given me so much pleasure. I enjoy it and enjoy teaching it. I came a long way from when I started- now folks are amazed with my ability.
I always say, though, that all paintings are composed from lines and dots, and with enough determination, anyone can do it.
Happy painting!
