Zippy the Clown will be juggling and entertaining at the 2015 Washington Special Olympics Summer Games at Joint Base Lewis McChord on May 30! Be sure to say hi to the guy in teal, and good luck to all the great athletes!

Clown idea of the day: Russian clowns

Posted on May 17, 2015 by El Santo

I am loving the look of Russian clowns. I suppose they are mimes, technically, but I see balloon animals and juggling in there so I am totally calling them clowns. Look at those costumes: well fitted but colorful, and makeup is generally classy… like these guys belong in a 19th century fancy dress ball.

I went with a completely different look today. The wife thinks I look scary, but I thought it came off great.

Sea-HAWKS! Rocking the blue and green during the playoffs.

Looks like Kent posted a video of me. Fellow clown Scooter (or Jerry?!?!?!) did all the talking, but you can see a split second of me in the back.

Clown idea of the day: Angus Oblong

Posted on April 29, 2015 by El Santo

I really like Angus Oblong’s clown inspired make up. It is so transformative. You can barely discern the face of the man underneath, instead focusing on the simple lines that form the cartoon expression. It’s a look that’s harried, perplexed, but well-meaning. I probably will never get a chance to do one similar to it, since I imagine it’s probably scary for kids… but, wow, what a simple and original look.
