Alison Kenyon has been a fine artist in the San Francisco Bay area for 30 of her 36 years,
winning her first of countless juried art shows at age 6!
In high school, she was twice awarded scholarships to attend summer sessions at the prestigious Academy of Art college.
In college she was selected for a coveted European art study program in London and Paris.
She began face and body art in 1993, and has since been flown around the world to do makeup at the 2001 Miss India Pageant, body painting at Arnhem's International Human Statue contest, and countless events as in-house makeup artist for San Francisco's own Velocity Circus.
In 2004, Alison was winner of the International Face and Body Art competition in San Francisco, and since then has continued to hone her craft in extensive workshops with the world's finest face and body artists: Olivier Zegers, 2 time world champions of body painting Raphaelle and Gary Fieldhouse, and the Wolfe Brothers.
