I think twisting is one of my favorite clown things to do. I love that you can be so creative with a piece of latex. When out twisting it is the look on a persons face after they receive their balloon creation, that makes my heart melt.
When I go home to visit my family and friends, the balloon bag must travel with me or I am in big trouble, a good kind of trouble. It's nice to know they love what I do, too.
No matter what age you are, balloons are for everyone. Recently I taught my grandmother at that time 91 years young (now 93), how to balloon twist. When I go home and get to visit with her we pull out the balloons and have fun... How cool is that!!!!
Check out some of our cool photos below.....
My daughter Jesse, her friend Sarah and myself went to my grandma's for the day.... We pulled out the balloons like we usually do and this is one of the creations Jesse made.It was the first time Jesse ever twisted a balloon, great job Jes!!!!
Lainie twisting with the neighborhood children preparing for Halloween. We made 100 balloon hats to give away + a castle wall that turned our pretty cool! There are more photos of this day in the balloon decor Halloween area.
Some of the balloons I have made, just a few....
Out in the balloon world there are great artist that teach us how to make these wonderful sculptures. They create DVD's for us to watch, teach at conventions and just make us want to do better at our craft.
I do not take credit for these designs to be my original patterns, unless otherwise noted. I would like to say thank you to all the master twisters that have inspired me to do better.
practice piece.....A gift for Kevin Burke we were going to the show "Defending the Caveman" and thought he might like a balloon. He is a former clown.
