Preview The Australian Body Art Carnivale 2014

I'm super excited about this year's Australian Body Art Awards in Eumundi.

Not only am I attending for the first time (as a spectator), but I will also sponsor THREE category prizes.

It's my way of giving back to the industry and I'm really proud to have the opportunity to support and promote the face painters and body artists in this way. I can't wait to find out who the winners will be!

Please take a minute to check out this preview and bios of some of the competitors who have already registered for 2014.

You should also take a look at this article I wrote last year, published in the Sunshine Coast Daily about Toowoomba Body Artist Kelli MacAlpine, who took home runner up and people's choice awards in the Airbrush Body Art category.

The image on the right is courtesy of The Australian Body Art Carnivale, and was painted by Lauren Edmonds - the winner of 'face paint' 2013.

If you haven't already entered and you have the opportunity to, I hope you will have go - even if it's just for the experience.

Here's the entry form.
