Georgette, who was named Body Painter of the Year in New Times’ Best Of Issue for 2010, has been transforming people with paint for over 15 years. She began as a face painter at the young age of 15 and continued painting children through high school, her military career and into college.A graduate of FAU, she received a BFA in Conceptual Studio Art. During college, the world of body painting was opened up to her, along with an older clientele. By using her knowledge from formal training and combining her impromptu freestyle, she creates living works of art. Design and color accentuate the fluid movements of the body. Shape, line, and layer take on a new depth as models breath life into paint. An award winning artist, Georgette has been requested by clients such as Versace, Playboy, Bullets 4 Peace, and Breezes Resorts in Jamaica, as well as some of the most popular clubs and venues in Miami. Live body paint performance is also an aspect of her portfolio. She has drawn crowds at Gavlak Gallery, Gallery 101, Miami’s Art Basel and at The Hive Gallery in Los Angeles. She is also a featured artist at the monthly Art Nouveau Events Group Show in West Palm Beach and headlining artist at the Palm Beach Art and Music Festival.Her work has been published in multiple magazines and papers, including the cover of Wellington Magazine, featured cover of Her Life Magazine, featured in Illusions Magazine, The Palm Beach Post, New Times, City Link and online blogs such as BMEzine.com and Clik/Hear.palmbeachpost.com.Working closely with talented photographers, she creates private and comfortable photo shoots for clients that want to feel the freedom of being adorned in nothing but paint. Georgette seeks to bring body paint into the forefront of the art community. She hopes to change society’s misconceptions of the art form by combining beautiful imagery with dynamic and fluid motion.
