Sugar Skull Workshops

It seems that each year I begin preparing earlier and earlier for the Dia de los muertos season. This year is no exception. I am doing things a little different this season as I have had many years of trial and error to perfect how I go about choosing artists to work with me.

There are so many factors that go into it that it almost becomes impossible to meet all of the requirements without meeting artists in person so, I'm now on a mission to meet and work with face painters and makeup artists from all over the country via Sugar Skull workshops.

I will be travelling with my partner Ronnie Mena teaching, working with and helping artists from all over the United States up their Sugar Skull game starting this June.

*This will now be a requirement in order to qualify to join my Sugar Face and Body Art team.

This is what you will gain from this experience:

1. You will get hands on learning and critique along with homework to continue growing before the season begins from Ronnie Mena and myself.
2. You will be added to my private student group on facebook where I answer questions online and hold once a month live video chats for questions.
3. You will be able to network with other artists in your area for possible job sharing.

4. You will have an opportunity to showcase your skills if you think you are ready to join
Sugar Face and Body Art. (This is not required in order to take our Sugar Skulls workshop but, for those who feel they are ready the opportunity is available.) Jobs are not guaranteed even if you do meet the qualifications but, you will remain on my roster of artists in your area to be called first if a client needs someone in your area.
If larger job opportunities arise in Los Angeles, California you may be called to join us. More info will be sent to you once you sign up for a workshop in your area.

Host city requirements:

 *In order to host a class in your city we need at least 15 students ready to sign up and no more than 20.

 *Workshops are $150 per student.

 *We need a well lit workspace with tables and chairs. Chain Restaurants are not an ideal option. Art /makeup studios, hotel meeting rooms, community center meeting rooms or homes with adequate space and lighting are recommended.

 *If you would like us to come to your city and think you have enough artists to sign up then, please email me at sugarfaceandbodyart@gmail.com 

Workshops will be held from June 2017-September 2017

If you would like to sign up for a workshop be sure to visit my website at www.shawnadmakeup.com

I look forward to meeting you all very soon!

Face and Body Painting Classes and Workshops

When I was in college many, MANY moons ago I was going to school to be a music teacher. It was during this time that I took a job at a Makeup counter and my life headed in another creative direction. I decided one day I would like to gain enough knowledge to help guide and teach makeup artists by becoming a Trainer for a cosmetic company. I really do love guiding and teaching people to gain new skills that will make them feel empowered and improve their ability to create and connect to their canvas..."other people".

 Through my own artistic journey over the past year I have come to a place where I needed to do something different, something outside of my artistic box and realized that if I was going through this how many other artists are going or have gone through this too and that is how my latest Creative Beauty workshop formed.

 In my latest fusion beauty (where beauty makeup meets Art and face paint) workshop I not only teach you the fundamentals of beauty but, I teach you how to think outside of your own artistic box, how to dig deeper to find something new inside that you didn't even know existed. I had 14 ladies join me in the first creative beauty workshop and ALL had breakthroughs. It was so amazing to watch and even more amazing to hear all of the positive feedback.

 I am really looking forward to taking this workshop and a few of my other skill building workshops on the road across the U.S. this year and abroad in 2018.

 A few of the cities and areas that are in the works right now are:

2017 
San Diego, California

Northern, California

The Bay Area, California

San Antonio & Dallas, Texas

Madison, Connecticut 

New Jersey

Costa Rica

2018

The Netherlands

New Zealand

Once dates and times are confirmed they will be posted here as well as on my website and social media.

If you are interested in hosting a fusion beauty workshop in your area please email me at shawna@shawnadmakeup.com and don't forget to subscribe on my website to be notified when a new city is added to my calendar.

Face painting student group

 A while ago I created a private group on facebook for current and former face paint and Makeup students of mine to join. A place where we could talk about things I have taught in my face painting and Makeup workshops across the united states.

 I created this group with the intention of continuing to mentor and help anyone who has taken a makeup class with me to be even more successful in their creative journey. In this group I post items I have used in class, give makeup tips and tricks, post helpful guides  and sometimes students will just have questions regarding something we went over in class that they just need clarification on or maybe just need to hear again. This helps other students as well because some may have similar questions and are able to find the answers they are looking for in one place.

 I really enjoy seeing artists grow as I feel that if you are not growing you are not really living up to your full potential. I want to continue to grow in all areas of my life and art fills a big part of my life therefore, I want to help others fill that part of their life as well. I believe it's important to feel supported and lifted up by those you respect and consider your peers along this journey so, if you have taken a full day workshop with me and are not in this group please add me as a friend on facebook and I will add you to this group. I have just recently posted a custom palette I created and purchased from Frend's Beauty before my Dallas Sugar Skull Makeup workshop. I have listed all of the colors and order I have them in my palette in this post.

 Every evening I pray with my children before I put them to bed and ask God to help us to be a blessing to others each day. My journey on this planet is short and I want God to use me in a way that glorifies Him. I know that through face painting I have found a way to reach and bless so many people. I hope you will find a way to use what gifts you have been given to not just support you and your family but, to nourish and bless others as well. Do what you love and make that work to bless others everyday.

Quotes from "The purpose driven life" daily inspiration- 

A life devoted to things is a dead life, a stump; a God shaped life is a flourishing tree

Proverbs 11:28

Blessed are those who trust in the Lord and have made the Lord their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along the riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by the long months of drought. Their leaves stay green, and they go right on producing delicious fruit.

Jeremiah 17:7-8

Glitter and Glam Makeup Los Angeles Workshop

Have you been loving all of my Glitter and Glam posts? Well, now you can learn how I create these beautiful glittery face paint and Makeup looks in my Glitter and Glam workshop here in Los Angeles, California in what may be my only Southern California workshop this year.

Join guest artist and instructor Ronnie Mena and myself as we teach how to use traditional Beauty Makeup, Face Paint and Glitter to create beautiful glamorous looks. You will learn the importance of proportions, color combinations, consistent line work and placement. You will also learn different application techniques for creating flawless photo ready work. The goal of this class is to leave you feeling inspired with a new set of skills and techniques you can apply to your own work.

This class was designed with the working artist in mind. You should have a basic and fundamental knowledge of either face painting or beauty makeup.

I cannot wait to share the fun with you. Cost of this workshop is $150 per person.

Email me at facenbodyart@gmail.com to reserve your seat in class.

Up comming face painting Workshops and Classes

In case you missed it, I will be teaching two face painting classes and one face painting workshop at the Bayfaba convention in San Francisco at the end of this month.

 In my first class I will be teaching you a couple of Masquerade Mask designs from simple to elaborate. These designs are best suited for teens and adults. The designs taught in this class are considered private appointment designs or designs that you can use to wow your clients. This is not your average party face design.

 In my second class I will be teaching you Creative eye designs including designs that can be used at Children's parties and at Adult events. I will show you how to "Complete the look" by adding a few quick details to make your designs photo ready.

 I will be teaming up with Ronnie Mena on Sunday in a 6 hour Sugar Skull workshop. You will be learning hands on techniques including placement and elements that define a feminine or masculine Sugar Skull. Note - This workshop is not included in your registration cost.

 To sign up for this convention simply head over to www.bayfaba.com and check out all of the other amazing classes being offered. I look forward to see you there.

Happy Painting my friends,
Shawna
