Carmel McCormick has taken out the Supreme Award at the 2008 New Zealand Body Art Awards – for the second year running.

The Auckland professional face painter impressed the judges at Auckland's North Shore Events Centre last night with her two jungle boy and lizard entries.  She managed to place first equal – with herself – in the Handpainted Body Art section.

Carmel McCormick says she feels "unbelievably lucky" to have won the top award two years in a row and the hand painted category three years running.

Novice artist Estela Shen proved she has a big future, winning two categories; Masquerade Mask and Creatures.

Other winners included a mother and daughter; Nicole Heydenrijk, who took out the fluorescent prize and Yolanda Bartram who won Air Brushed Body Art.

Head judge, Weta Workshop's Richard Taylor, says the talent just continues to get better every year.
The New Zealand Body Art Awards will return to Auckland's North Shore in 2009, with the event going from strength to strength every year.

Carmel about one of Goina's photos

A fantastic shot and one of my favourites.  I love her work she has a good eye and brings photos to life. A great photographer who takes shots with a twist to them I like that. Cheers
