Paint Yo Face with Ming Diaz: Lions, Tigers and Bears, OH MY!

Y'all know by now that this show is all about the Laughing, witty banter, and learning something new along the way!  Ming Diaz (yup that's his real name, reminds me of a Ming Dynasty vase name) will be my guest.   What an all around nice guy and happy character.  Ming and I immediately created witty banter and rapport upon meeting and also upon the second time we, perchance, saw each other.  He paints faces at festivals and plans on traveling around to many different conventions when he retires next year.    Fun and games, face painting galore.  It's all about the laughs with this guy! 

A bit of philosophy from Ming: 

"I believe that facepainting is a grooming effect for children.  In Anthropology, grooming is a reassurance, an action which tells the child they are important, they are the center of attention, they are included in the thing that is happening at that moment..... I also believe that every pro facepainter should take formal training in this subject.  They are providing a very important thing to a child.  Every encouragement, every uplifting action they do or say to the child when facepainting is going to have a large impact in that young person's mind and development."

He is also a successful and proud parent and grandparent:  See here on some REALNESS:  I agree with what he has to say: 

Being a successful parent and Grandparent: One minute and thirty seconds
