Fashion Bites Back 2009!

A few of the images from "Fashion Bites Back" 2009.




Sci-Fi Glam meets Vampire....one of the main "monsters".



















Some of the models getting down with their funky selves after the show...



My plug for "Youth OUTright" the GLBTQ support network for whom the fundraiser was held. It was a lot of fun!!

Smoke and Mirrors a smashing success!

The very first body art show in Johnson City was a huge success, pulling in a huge crowd and showing off some great talent!


We started early....



The winning entry, painted by Two Couture (myself and Patti Peters) on twins Anna and Sarah Ringley.
