ARTIST INFO
Thank you for your interest in participating in the first ever Cincinnati Body Paint Expo! Please hit the "I'm In!" button to e-mail us and get set up to get your paint or model on after reading the info below.
Here is the run down:
-It is preferred that you bring your own model, if you can't find a model you can contact us and we will do our best to get you one.
-You must use paint and products that are specifically formulated for body painting or makeup purposes! No acrylics allowed.
-You will need to have examples of your face paint, body paint, or makeup for galleries and to show that you have experience in the makeup field.
-You must be 18 or older to participate.
-Your model must wear at least underpants and pasties for this event. If you prefer to do a partial body paint that is totally fine. We ask that you use costume pieces to cover whatever is not painted.
-The theme is A Midsummer Night's Dream: This means fairies, flowers, forest creatures, magic, etc. Feel free to be creative!
-12pm-5pm - Painting Time! This is a no pressure event, feel free to mingle and check out everyone's work. We want the painters to get to know each other and create fun art together. Mid-day food and drinks will be provided. If you want to arrive later that is fine if your design can be done for show time! We will have a photographer taking behind the scenes photos towards end of the paint time. *No one outside of painters, models and approved assistants will be allowed in the paint venue.
-5pm-6:30pm - We will make a few announcements, finish up painting, pack up, change (if desired) and head over to New Riff!
-Attire is Cocktail to business casual for the party, but if you want to dress up to the theme or to match your model that would be great!
-7pm - Body Art Fashion Show! Each model will have 3 minutes to walk the runway music will be provided. They can strut their stuff and really show off the art. Once all the models have gone, we will do a final parade with everyone.
-Once that portion is done we will do a Q&A with Aryn Fox, then announce Audience Favorite! They will receive a small prize.
-After that it's party time!
