My first Full Body Painting... sortof

wow--I wanna Elephont!!!

So so so cute!!!!! Cant wait to see more!

Love it Amanda! Just adorable.

I love it!

oh and Kitty..I didn't paint an elephant...just real artists did them! or famous persons!

Looking great! This looks like sooo much fun!!!!

She is gorgeous Amanda! Can't wait to see more

How can we get one done for ourselves? It looks so cute!!
Great Work!

Looking super!!

She's so cute! It looks like to much fun!

OH, I should also mention, this chicky is pock marked worse than a 13 year old boy! There isn't a smooth surface anywhere on her body! Talk about a pain in the tush to paint! Making those circles on her socks with a circle sponge was even a chore! I'll take a smooth human body to paint, with potty breaks and all, any day.

LOL! I was painting styrofoam board yesterday for our Easter Egg Hunt & it was all pocked. I went from a brush to a roller(I doubt that would work because you need better control).

what a great canvas! looks great so far..love it! can't wait to see pics of it all done

I got confused because you said 'we have painted'.... (you're not famous yet in Landgraaf??)

Amanda I'm so curious how it will look when you're finished! Love it, he would definately fit in our garden, near our fish, duck and turtles.

Here is the latest... I'm so glad I finally got her color on, of course as soon as I had her painted teal a little boy came up and told me elephants are supposed to be grey. Lol... Oh well!

I love it!

That is really starting to come together beautifully! You're doing a great job!

I love the bright colours, it looks as if he has knitted socks on, cute!
Which kind of paint do you use Amanda?

A bit off line but the fotographer of the elefants in the Netherlands has contacted me to work with him for fotosessions YeaY

For this I'm using all Acrylic paints, which is what the company that supplied them recommends. Then they gave me a few spray cans of an automotive clear gloss sealer for when it's all done.

Congrats Kitty... Hopefully we will get to see some of your pics!

Ewww! Acrylics... is that safe for elephant painting

BTW, I'm loving the leg warmers!!!

Great elephant. Looks like a smooth surface, but from what you post I understand it only looked that way, Great job.

More updates...
First, here is a close up pic of a foot to show you guys what the terrain is like that I'm trying to paint on... talk about a pain in the a$$!!


And here are some action shots:



And finally, Tallulah has a brand new pair of shoes! You can't tell from the pics but her shoes are covered in green glitter. I'm gonna add another coating of glitter glue next time to make it even more sparkly... I think it will look sweet.

I love it! I have glittery blue Convers!
She looks like a touch model... You'd think she'd help a girl out & lift up so you coul reach her underside better:-) Can you fit under her if you lie on your back?

I face painted an Elephant! It still needs some white accents, but overall I am very pleased with it! It's definitely a new challenge trying to paint the same thing on two sides of a face that's about 18" wide and has crazy weird facial structure!

She looks AMAZING! You are doing such an awesome job!

I want one!!!! wahhhhhhhh

Nice job Amanda
