Day 238 - Friday, Friday, Friday

Not much to do today, so if you have any ideas for tutorials you want me to do, today is a great day to do them. Post your suggestions in the comments below, on Facebook or katmandewfba@gmx.com

I have a birthday party to do tomorrow with a Carnival theme, so I will make sure to take pics and post them in tomorrows blog.

Until tomorrow, HAPPY PAINTING

Day 237 - Goddard School

I had the pleasure of painting a few kids at the Goddard School in Farragut, TN today and had a blast with them. The only problem I found, was the 5 hours driving round trip for 1 hour of smiling faces. Not complaining about the kids, just the gas used to do this job cost more than half I was paid for the gig. But, I would do it all over again just to see those smiling faces once more! Take a look at them (I accidentally deleted the last photo of a boy with his face painted as Lightning McQueen)

Day 236 - Week In Review

Well, I don't think I can say any more than I already have in the video. I am staying away from trying to save the world with common sense. No body wants to listen to reason, so I will stop trying!

Now I want to just start over fresh and positive! I am going forward with my life and am looking to put everything in the past behind me. I can't hide from it, but I am not going to let it run my future self.

With that being said, if you have any ideas for me that are of a positive nature and want me to make a video or tutorial, just leave a comment below or on Facebook. I will do anything within reason to make it fun and entertaining for you!

Until tomorrow, HAPPY PAINTING!

Day 235 - You Tell Me If This Is Professional for Kids Entertainers!

Now you have seen my videos and blogs on A-Amusement & you have seen theirs through links I have provided. You tell me if this is professional behavior for a Children's Entertainment Services company!

I know I have had some iffy situations in my videos, but it is who I am and others have accepted it, because I stand up for our community.

A-Amusement is the most unprofessional company I have ever seen when they think they can attack an individual publicly with threats of violence, profanity in statements online, name calling and such.

What do you think should be done with this whole situation? Leave a comment below or on Facebook or Twitter or email me your personal thoughts on this matter to katmandewfba@gmx.com!

Oh and they love getting hate mail, so send them something at jsteele@aamusement.com

Until tomorrow, HAPPY PAINTING!

Day 234 - Video Response to A-Amusement's 6 Part Response

I really do not want to to go any further, but certain individuals will not take responsibility for their actions and therefore need to be dealt with.

I do not need to make a 13 or 6 part video to validate myself. I will not put up with arrogance from a company that knows they are in the wrong.

DO NOT use me or my influence on the internet to try to communicate with individuals you should be contacting directly. If you are making a video response to me, DO NOT direct any problems with others using such video. This is very unprofessional.

Everyone I know who knows about this or is involved wants it to go away and they keep telling me to leave it alone, that this company is hurting themselves with these videos. I agree with them to a point, but I had to make this last video and set a few things straight.

Now that this is done, I will be ignoring all further correspondence, whether video or email, as it is not worth my time anymore. THIS IS MY LAST VIDEO & BLOG ON THIS COMPANY. They will have to deal with it or forget.

If anyone gets into a legal battle with them for any reason, I have made copies of all documentation and videos posted for legal purposes and you have all rights to them. Just contact me if you would like a DVD copy of all materials.

As I have said, I am done with them!

Day 233 - Great Sunday!!!

I had a lot of fun hanging out with the Adkison family and a great local photographer Brandon Reese. Talked about a lot of things and came up with some great ideas for future body painting photo shoots and business. In all it was a great Sunday!

Until tomorrow, HAPPY PAINTING!!!
