Painting fun at the Tucson Botanical Gardens

This past weekend, James spent the afternoons painting his famous tattoos at the Tucson Botanical Gardens. As you can see, he had a line as usual, and was cracking his jokes creating a lot of laughs for the crowd. The girl in front is inspecting her fresh new tattoo, as all the kids do until it is eventually lost to the circumstances of having to take a bath. James prides himself on water conservation, as he alone is probably responsible for saving millions of gallons of water over the years, getting kids out of baths in order to save the art painted on their arms.
This is a close up of what James has become famous for...his arm tattoos! Kids and adults are goo-gaa over them and has he ever come a long way with his painting since we started in Kansas City 4 years ago.

I thought these orchids were incredible...also photographed these in the butterfly house at the gardens.

Yes! The greatest arm painter in the know universe! King of washable tattoo & master of making children smile everywhere, the one the only James of the Project InSECT jungle! Give that man a hand, a arm or a forehead and he'll paint it! Go James go!
