Categories for the Face Painting Convention 2008 Competitions
are now announced!
The theme for this year is
"All-star Americana"
This exiting theme has been designed to give as many creative options as possible and I am looking forward to
receiving some amazing, creative entries from the artists throughout the UK and worldwide! The theme encompasses all things USA from the bright lights of New York City to Midwest folk art to West Coast laidback style.
The winners will all be announced at the award ceremony at the Face Painting Convention 2008's Saturday Night
Banquet. Remember you do not need to attend to attend the Face Painting Convention 2008 to enter the main postal competitions!

As soon as you have your final A4 entry printed you must send it in ASAP by post to the address below:
Angela Emery
"UKFPC"
10 Cumber Drive
Wilmslow

RECORDED DELIVERY IS RECOMMENDED!!!
Some stuff to note about emailed entries:
Artists are welcome to email their entries over but please remember that I do not have a top of the range photo
quality printer so can not be held responsible for poor photo quality.
Entries should be sent to angelaemery1981@hotmail.com
When emailing the entries please make sure they are ready to print as either .jpg or .pdf files which are scalable
to A4 size.
I will only be printing one A4 and up to two 4" x 6" (for details only and subject to display space) prints per entry
for face painting awards and up to three A4 for body painting and up to three 4" x 6" (for details only and subject to display space) to keep it fair for all nominees.
Please use this format for naming your emailed entries to avoid any going missing! They should be
firstnamesurnametitleA4.ext for the main entry photo and firstnamesurnametitledetailnumber.ext for the details. For example if I were to enter then I would make sure the files were names as follows angelaemeryhollywoodA4.pdf and angelaemeryhollywooddetail1.pdf - you get the drift.
Good clear photography and good printing will help your entry!
If in doubt, post it out!
LAST DATE FOR RECEIPT OF ENTRIES WILL BE SUNDAY 12th OCTOBER 2008 @ MIDNIGHT!!! (That's the
Sunday before the convention!)
There will be a list of FAQ questions on the convention competition section of www.facepaintchat.com
<http://www.facepaintchat.com> forum so ask a question by email or pm and I will add them to the list so they are all in one place and a good reference that's easy to find for everyone!
