The Face and Body Art International Convention is one of my favorite events to paint at all year! Not only do I get to teach Graffiti and have fun with my global body painting family but also because i get the creative freedom to wild out and make some crazy masterpieces! This year was no exception and i got down on TWO multi body illusionary masterpieces with three bodies each!!
First up!
"Genie of the Lamp"

Body paint and retouching: WISER
Models: Sean Jones, Kristen Lee, Nick Place
Assisted by: Lea Selley, Georgette Pressler
Straight out of a storybook this illusion was inspired by one of my favorite tales as a child! It was crazy to transform Sean into the Genie as he is being awkoen by Aladdin! Sean truly embodies the angry genie!
To help complete the illusion i had the lovely Kristen as my lamp!
On day two I had the pleasure of working with my good homie Magic Mike Dardant (the magician not the stripper lol). Mike is a champion magician so nothing less than the best when working with him, especially if the concept is 5 magic tricks going on at the same time!! Remember...everyone in this picture is TOPLESS! lol!

Concept: Magic Mike & WISER
Bodypaint: WISER
Models: Magic Mike, Michelle Pimentel, Isabelle Scott
Michael Dardant is one of the best magicians in the world so it was crazy fun to create this illusionary masterpiece on a true master of illusion and his two lovely assistants!
I cant wait to continue this series of magic with Mike in the future and see what other tricks we can pull out of our sleeves!
The biggest masterpiece of them all however was getting married to my beautiful wife Léa Selly in a Day of the Dead themed wedding on the opening night of the convention! Thank you to all who were there and made it happen especially Marcela Murad, The Queen of Everything! lol
