Airbrushing workshop

This weekend we have had the very last one of our July creative workshops. The Airbrushing class for beginners, given by Michael George, has been a very fun, insightful and inspiring event. We would like to thank all attendants for participating and we hope everyone has enjoyed this wonderful 2-day course.

Last minute call! Body artist needed for music video!

Anthony Plant is looking for a body artist to help him out full day with shooting a music video for the band Midnight Youth. The video will have a bit of a cartoony look with the band performing in blacklight, so you will be working with a lot of black & UV paints. When? This very Sunday the 21st of August!

A small fee is paid to cover materials and offer a bit of pocket money.
