I am from St. Louis, Missouri in the US.  I am still pretty new to twisting and very new to face painting.  I am anxiously awaiting my new DVDs (one from Phileas) in the mail.  My job is a before and after school care for children so they are always willing to take home my practice work, be my practice canvases and they can do basic balloons and even teach each other now - which is so neat.
