Issue 9 - July

Welcome to Issue 9 of Brush Strokes.  It's a few days late this month as we've been preparing full reports from the World Bodypainting Festival in Seeboden, Austria which took place last week.  Our cover artists are the new World SFX champions, Peter & Petra Tronser. This month, in addition to featuring the work of top henna artist, Riffat Bahar, we also have an article from UK artists Juliet Eve & Heather Sharp who competed for the first time at Seeboden and of course our reports on the Festival itself, and the results of our competition from Issue 7!.  As always, we have 3 great new step-by-steps for you to try and new videos for you to watch.  Enjoy!
