Mardi Gras with Neecee Blackwell










MARDI GRAS has arrived and soon masks, costumes and regalia will abound! Getting started early on his Mardi mask is KTBS, Channel 3 News Personality, Rick Rowe, seen here enjoying a face painting by WEACO Vice President, Neecee Blackwell. Rick interviewed the professional face painter about her business and some of the festivities she'll be involved in to celebrate the beginning of Mardi Gras in the Ark-La-Tex. After painting Rick, Neecee painted other KTBS staff members, with a mardi gras mask and a requested Gene Simmons of KISS mask, as oddly non-Mardi gras as that is. The interview will be aired KTBS Channel 3 on Thursday, February 5th during several newscasts and after that will be on the station's website, http://www.ktbs.com/. For a schedule of where Neecee Blackwell's Facez Face and Body Painting will be painting fabulous, fanctful masks, please check out her website http://www.facezfacepainting.com/ and click on the "My Schedule" tab.
