Rachel from Brilliant Face Painting was absolutely amazing, and I hope she doesn't mind me writing about her art here. Face painting in a capsule on the Eye is no easy feat, but in the 30 minute flight she'd achieved stunning results on 3 faces and 3 hands. Ruby has had her face painted quite a few times, but this is without a doubt the best I've ever seen.
Here's my Ruby's transformation...
Guess who wants to go first??
Carefully selecting the design...
A stunning spectrum of shades...
The rainbow appears...
A bit of colour to the cheeks...
Then filling in the beautiful details...
Time for a quick drink...
...while Mummy gets her hand done!
Pretty blue flowers.
The finished result, my beautiful rainbow child!
Which of course gives me the perfect excuse to play one of my favourite Stones songs (after Ruby Tuesday of course!) Go on - have a little dance, you know you want to.
Happy Birthday beautiful. x
