March 12th, 2010 by John WolfeArtist James Kuhn, aka bibleartwork on YT, has taken face painting to a whole new level with his amazing creations and the way he displays his work. In the following vids, James has turned himself into an animated canvas portraying Halloween-themed subjects.

That’s bizarre. It took me a second to figure out what was going on in the skeleton video. The monster cereal paint is very creative. Thanks for the post.

Dr. Necropolis,
I, too, was a little disoriented when I first found his videos–it took me a second or so to process what exactly was taking place. Then, once I realized he was creating these awesome works of art on his face, I just kept watching more and more vids.
autumnforest,
I agree–pretty great stuff!

Wow, this was some strange yet creative stuff! The second video is really something else in how he managed to pull off 3 different looks into one and MOST accurate with the painted images. The videos you find my friend, unique all the time

That is so funny, I have seen this kind of makeup work and it is more effective on video and much less confonding as your sence of depth is stronger. I love doing effects makeup and am always watching for new and origional ideas.

Goldie,
He was so good on the Monster Cereal performance, after watching it, I had a craving for Boo Berry. I’m either going to have to order some from Amazon, or else stock up when October rolls around. I can just see my pantry now–it’ll look like one of those Honey Nut Cheerios commercials where the entire grocery store (all departments) stocks only Honey Nut Cheerios! I know there are a few locations that carry the monster cereals throughout the year, but at my local stores, they’re only available near Halloween. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Ethan,
I didn’t know you worked with makeup, too. You have a ton of talents, man!
frightnight,
Thanks for watching. I’m glad you enjoyed the entry.

That is so cool. I’m totally with ya on the second vid. I’m not a big fan of Count Chocula but I certain got a craving after watching that.

Andrea,
Great to hear from you! Yeah, I’m more of a Boo-Berry and Franken-Berry fan than I am Count Chocula, but I’ll even take the Count in a pinch.
