United States, September 2015 -- Jennifer Montgomery, a celebrated Key West (Florida) Duval street and Mallory Square Sunset Celebrations artist, is accepting body painting appointments for the upcoming Fantasy Fest.

Fantasy Fest is an annual 10 day festival that takes place at the end of October in Key West, FL. During the Fest, body painting is a very popular theme, alongside beads, parties, and whole lots of fun.

Since body painting is very popular during the event, patrons are usually advised to book appointments in advance. This is to ensure that all willing customers get the proper amount of time and service needed to pull off a successful body paint image.

Body painting, just like tattoos (temporary or permanent) is a form of body expression. Where tattoos may last for years, body paint will usually stay on for a few hours. For the most part, body paint has been a preserve of festivals such as Fantasy Fest, and gives participants the chance to have their choice designs painted on them in colors they like. For you, the opportunity to be body painted by one of the best artists is a once in a lifetime opportunity.

For such events as the Fantasy Fest, Jennifer Montgomery uses a special kind of paint, that’s suitable for use on the face and body. Due to her experience in the field, you should rest assured that washing off the paint will be an easy task, and that you shouldn’t fear any allergic reactions. At any point before the appointment, you are welcome to ask questions and learn as much as you can about the whole process. Jennifer is more than willing to answer your queries and alleviate any concerns you have.

Apart from choosing body paint for festivals, you can have your body painted specifically for a photo shoot. The body paint adds a unique and artistic flair to the photographs, ensuring you get to see a side of yourself you wouldn’t have. With body paint, the photos stand out. Fashion shows are also a great place to showcase body paint, where the paint plays to the theme of the show. For models, this is a great way to stand out from the competition.

Many have had Jennifer body paint them, with the artistry and flair of the job overwhelming them. As The Little Rock Foundation says, “Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to paint faces at our holiday party … they turned out beautiful!” and Kim from PA, “thank you … for an outstanding job!”

Initially, Jennifer Montgomery started out as CrazyFaces Face Painting, dedicated to face painting gigs for birthday and theme parties in the Philadelphia area. As she grew her talents and creativity, so did her ability to take on much complex tasks. CrazyFaces has now grown to offer more than just face painting, and services now include airbrush tattoos, airbrush t-shirts, body paint, and henna application for any style party or event. More to that, Jennifer’s clientele has expanded to include those from the Philadelphia Tri-State area as well as South Florida.

Aside from business, Jennifer is an easy going, creative, and likes children. Her life revolves around creating art through paint, and she is happy she found her calling in life.

Should you wish to make an appointment during Fantasy Fest, make sure to include as much details as possible, mainly regarding the style, design, and color of the body paint you want. That way, Jennifer will be in a better position to capture your thoughts down to the last stroke.

Växjö, Sweden, April 28, 2014 -- A project consisting of seven paintings- each seemingly identical with a numerical figure on each. Does the number reflect the price?

Amateur artist, Matthias Kamann has just recently released his latest art project. Produced in his native town of Växjö, Sweden, these hand built pieces feature seven hand-painted, large, white canvas, each with a black numerical figure on it. The first painting shows a “1”, the second a “10”, the third a “100”, up until the seventh, a “1.000.000".

Kamann is set to sell each of the seven paintings on his website, for one week, from April 28 to May 4, 2014. The prices? Here’s a clue: the figures written on the paintings are the prices or values that Matthias attaches to the paintings.

The project doesn’t only consist of these seven paintings. The sales process also is an integral part of it. “I want to see what people make of it. Do they evaluate my art with a different price than the one I attached to them?” states Kamann. “Those who want to buy a Value Art painting can sign up between April 28 and May 4. If there is more than one person interested into a painting, the winner will be drawn and get the opportunity to buy the painting.” The signup-period will last 7 days. Finally, the week after May 4, when the sale will end, the artwork “Value Art” will be concluded. By then everyone will know whether the viewers agree on Kamann’s valuation or price claim –and ifhe sold his 1 million dollar painting for its “value”.

Value Art is an artwork that confronts the viewers with the question what monetary value actually is and deals with the subjectivity of value. The artistic goal is to make the viewers reflect on how they value things.

Matthias Kamann provided a noteworthy comment on how is project came to be, “For me, Value Art is a statement of dual conflict. It wants to show the people how easily we perceive something as valuable just because a huge price tag is attached to it - at the same time, Value Art doesn’t only want to teach- it also wants to be sold itself. With other words - Value Art expresses the conflict every artist has to go through every time he or she decides to sell the art and has to put a price tag on their artwork,” states Matthias Kamann. “I want people to think - will this marketing guy, who is irritated about manipulative, marketing practices, sell a simple canvas for one million dollars? How many people want a 1 dollar painting?"

Each painting measures in at 45.3 in x 72.6 in, and was painted in November of 2011. They have been shown in exhibits twice in Sweden, one of them in a Café and one in the Library of Linnaeus University in Växjö and have quickly grown local attention.

Born in 1980, Matthias Kamann grew up as a farmer's child. Over the last couple of years he has been living in a cozy, little town in Sweden, called Växjö. He graduated with a masters degree in marketing at the local university (Linnaeus University) – to which he earlier came as an exchange student from Germany. His goal with this artwork and his future art projects is to reach many people to provoke, entertain and make them reflect about how they consume and are affected by marketing.
