Thank you, Red cross.

This has been an incredible experience!! I got the chance to create from scratch a face painting course for my fellow volunteers and travel through Italy to teach what I know (and still learning). The results were amazing. The Italian Red Cross gave me this opportunity and I made the best of it. Maybe they will never read my blog but I’d like to thank each and every person involved in this project and even if I decided to end it it does not mean I loved every minute of it. I keep volunteering as a BLSD instructor and hope one day to go back to my first love; the ambulance service.

Eulenspiegel brushes review

I probabily got my first Eulenspiegel brush in a pallette I bought a loooong time ago (an unfortunately never used because I really don’t get the Eulenspiegel colors…). I did not like the Eulenspiegel color pay off but I loved the brush (nr. 2). I finally had the chance to but and try out these brushes. The tip of the brush appears to be very smooth and delicate, so they are what’s best for precision work. The handle is thick enough. I sometimes like to work with bigger brushes, but I must admit this was a very good haul 🙂 and something to keep in a face painter case.
