Spiderman – Erin Sauder’s favourite face painting
The city has all kind of establishments spread throughout the city – there is certainly enough to do.
The Port House, tucked inside the Waterfront Hotel, has taken a different approach to attracting people who may not have been around for a while.
Erin Sauder, a graphic artist who uses the human body as her canvas will be at the Port House this evening along with an assistant.
Feather designs: examples of what might be used at the Body Painting event this evening at the Port House Social Bar
Erin’s body painting is several steps beyond what gets done at the traditional childrens’ birthday party.
Have a look!
The Port House event is the first of this type of event for Erin. She got her start when she was helping her Mother at an event where she was responsible for handling the Bouncy Castle at a childrens’ event. The person who was going to do the Face Painting didn’t show up – so there was Erin with a small paint brush.
Things grew from there.
A graduate of Niagara College Erin uses black lights and glow stick to make what is seen by most as a kids party event an adult event. She has earned a living as a body painting artist for the past 12 years.
Some people are going to go home looking a lot different than they did when they arrived at the Port House.
