Awww! Shucks! Lol, you guys are so sweet. Thanks so much!!! <3

Geekophile, it is all Wolfe. Smile

Jolene, I used a little trick I learned at FABAIC. You take a a round dauber, or in this case I cut a qrt of a Wolfe high density sponge into the shape of one, and apply as many colors as you wish. Kind of like in the shape of pie slices. I didn't use a white, but its best if you chose about 4 colors. White, a light, a midtone, and a dark. I said screw all that and wanted a rainbow. If you use four colors you can apply the paint straight to the sponge, but since I used so many I used a brush to apply it to the sponge. Then you press it against a paper towel lightly to get rid of excess paint, press onto desired skin area and give it the smallest twist back and forth. Just so the colors blend into the next just a little bit, but not completely. Add highlights (I don't like the ones I did on this one.) Then tada! Here's another picture of one I did.

Truly amazing. I was interested in venetian mask. Now seeing a few great design here, I am so much more into it. The color, theme, design everything is so perfect. I hope I will be able to make something cool like yours someday.
Can you give me some insight about your work.
