So far I have received 8 contributions. I want to personally thank everyone who has helped me out so far, especial Alex Beek, owner of DiamondFX, who donated $500. I would also like to thank Lorie McLelland for her donation and support by posting here website here for others to see
http://www.wix.com/FantastikFaces/facepainting A special thanks goes out to Christina Cots, Jenny Abarca, Pat Lawriter, Angie Mazzara, Leigh Carter & Kim Jones who also donated.
As I said in my last video, I will give you back 100% of your donations if I do not go, but If I do, I will bring back not only a more professional attitude and knowledge to share, but something tangible that you can hold and say "even though I wasn't there, I was in spirit". I don't know what you will get, but I promise it will not be a brochure for next year or a business card.
If I don't go and you do not want your donation back or would like me to use it on something I can use in a video, let me know in an email

I also wanted to inform you about the changes we are making to our Facebook Group. It is now called "
Theme of the Week" and is starting out with "Black & White", it will start at midnight on Monday and go all week long. The winner of the mini contest will be chosen on Saturday night. This allows for you to create all new works of art for the themes and have plenty of time to enter them. PLEASE NO OLD PHOTOS.
We are also going to be challenging you with a "Theme of the Weekend Challenge" so that you can come up with new paintings at the parties, festivals & events you do then.A great way to challenge yourself to create something you never thought of at your gigs. Just make sure you take lots of photos at the gigs and upload your photos as soon as you can so people can comment vote. It will start on midnight Saturday and the winner will be picked on Monday night.
One last change is the "Daily News" has been changed to "Current Events" and we will probably be doing a 2 day contest starting on Midnight Thursday with a winner being picked on Saturday night. The only stipulation in this change is that the prize will not be the Profile Pic, but an actual prize. We don't know what the prize will be, but you will find out when you win.
We are just trying out new things to make this group better, so if you have any ideas, let me or Liliana Hopman know.
Here are a few examples of the theme for this week, Black & White. I am sure you can do a lot better and I am excited to see what you can do.
