Artist, drag queen, former nudist and born again Christian James Kuhn has turned his hand to face painiting. Banana anyone?
Kuhn describes his creations as self-portraits because he uses his own face as the canvas for his work.
In his blog Kuhn says: “I really have become totally obsessed with face painting and i think about what i can do next all the time.”
Kuhn does his own take on Mickey Mouse but on the theme of oranges.
Here Kuhn uses real popcorn to add more realism to his popcorn box creation.
Kuhn turns his face into a cheeseburger complete with gherkin. He started face painting his face after he was snowed in by 12ins of snow and had to miss work.
Corn on the gob … sweet
A rockin’ role … as Kiss
A-peeling … monkey mug
Use your melon … go green
Basket case … food for thought
Work-of-art … bodybuilder
Kebab … what are skew looking at?
Fruity … strawberry look
Happy … painted smile
Kuhn’s unique take on a halloween Dracula mask showing two screaming faces joined together.Two-faced … don’t look, he’s behind you!
Sweet tooth … pineapple
Snack attack … feeding the face
Operation … board game
What’s the point? … prickly
Phis-hog … pig
Baby face … embryo
Tut tut … Pharaoh-face
Air head … James’s face as the Goodyear blimp
Bird-brain … Tweety Pie

April 9th, 2009 at 9:26 amHi,
My suggestion about glowing face paint is that apply thin layers of face paint. A thick layer can cake and crack, spoiling the design.
Thanks
