About Me
I have been an artist since the 80s in several different media, the last of which was textiles/wearable art and costume designing. I am now infatuated with the art of BODY PAINTING mixed with textile techniques from my years of working with fabrics and other mixed media.
I am currently building my professional portfolio of my own style. If you would like to be a canvas for me, all I ask is a paint/supplies fee of $50+ (depending on the planned design), and the shoot is tfp at the moment!
If you have a specific idea you would like for yourself my fees are $150+ any additional associated expenses. If it is strictly painting, it is $150, at the moment.
I look forward to working with you. If interested, send your MB# with your thoughts, contact info....including phone # and email, along with all your stats. For women include cup size.
*Body Painting involves nudity of course so please don't contact me asking to cover your nipples. If you want that, pre-purchase nipple shields. I have respect for all the models and any body issues, but I don't want to waste time with models not comfortable being nude. It is part of the art! :)
**Fees must be paid in advance, along with a release made up by myself and photographer.

03/05/2010 I agree, working and making preperations for a shoot and then NO SHOW is totally unprofessional, I spent a day getting wardrobe in her size and costs, blocked 4 days for an extended shoot, and No phone call, no email, no text and NO SHOW It's unbelievable Thanks for your support Fred |

02/06/2010 1. The body paint photos was a collaboration with the MAC Make up group at the Westfield mall in San Francisco, CA. It was all done with MAC Make up. Too many people to credit. 2. I accepted your membership in my club. I have no clue why you are not posted as a member. Maybe that is something you need to take up with Model Brigade. I have no control over it. thanks Javier |
