The last day of the 2010 FABAIC (Face and Body Art International Convention) was May 30, 2010, the seminars ended, the workshops were closed, and the winners in the competitions packed up their awards and memories and headed to the airport for destinations around the world. The Art of Face Painting goes back to the beginning of recorded history, maybe not as intricately as today but humans have been using their face as a canvas to portray emotions for centuries. Today's Face Painting is not to convey strength to the enemy such as war paint, or to call upon the gods for recognition, but rather to express a living art with safe removable Face Painting Makeup in a selection of colors that past civilizations could not have even imagined.
FABAIC is an International gathering of Face Painting and Body Painting Makeup Artists from around the world who have been meeting in Orlando, Florida, USA for nine years in a community event that lasts for five days. FABAIC offers Artists from around the world to interact with each other, feed off each others creative energy, explore new techniques, experience new make up introductions and share their knowledge with their fellow artists. FABAIC is not limited to the Professional Makeup Artist, it is open to all levels of Face Painting Makeup Artist and offers the opportunity for all to participate and compete on a level field.
In the Face Painting Competition at FABAIC there are four divisions, Youth, Novice, Semi-Pro and Pro, thus allowing those at different levels to experience the thrill of competition among Artists at their same level. Tonight Mehron would like to congratulate the winners of Face Painting Awards in the Semi-Pro Division of FABAIC and salute all those who spent grueling hours participating in this event. In the Face Painting Competition Semi-Pro Division the First Place Winner was Michelle Pulsifer, followed by Lauren Rae Chismar and Marie Villlalba in second and third place respectively. Mehron Makeup is proud sponsor and participant in FABAIC and extends congratulations not only to the winners and participants but to the organizers and producers of this magical event. Mehron Makeup looks forward to participating again in 2011 on May 25-30 and bringing to the Exhibition Hall the newest in Face Painting and Body Painting Makeup Innovations that are introduced from now until then.
