AHH!

I guess most people wouldn't consider a color expert or a cosmetologists an artist but I have a new respect for them. Over the weekend I decided to go a shade darker.. or that's what I had in mind. I bought a home coloring kit that was suppose to have a mild darkening affect according to the color chart.. I dye my hair and I'm shocked. I am now a reddish brunette. It takes skill (or at least skill in my eyes) to be able to dye hair and actually get the desired color. A friend of mine also had a discoloration accident this weekend. She decided to use a self tanning lotion. This friend is extremely pale and mized with the henna/bronze color.. I suppose her skin had such a tint that it turned orange or at least it was more obvious. This gave me an idea to look up artistic hair styles and body art.

Craig Tracy is an interesting body painter. I did like his work but to me some artist get to caught up in commercializing their work and you can't figure out how to just LOOK at their WORK http://www.paintedalive.com/ This is one of my favorites: http://www.paintedalive.com/HTML-WWW/speed-g.html

I also learned about a local artist by the name of Dennis McPhail who by reputation is known as one of the best regionally. http://www.worldtattooauthority.com/metadot/index.pl?iid=2858&isa=Category Sadly I couldn't find any images of his work unless I searched Google for " Dennis McPhail art" but I do think it is a good idea that he combines his love for art and cars. It kind of shows that something you are passionate about can become a career.
