Body Painting Jam at Cypress Cove

10 January 2026

Cypress Cove is proud to host a Body Painting Jam on January 10, coordinated by professional body painter Mandi Ilene. Painting begins at 3 pm in the clubhouse, where artists will spend about three hours transforming human canvases into stunning works of living art. All guests are welcome to stop by and watch the creative process unfold up close.

Mandi Ilene is a lifelong artist known for her bold colors, detailed storytelling, and dynamic body art. She is the founder of BASE Orlando (Body Art Showcase & Exhibit) and has produced more than 20 live body art shows since 2014. Her work has been featured and awarded at major national and international competitions, including events right here at Cypress Cove.

Mandi has invited an incredible lineup of artists for this jam, including "HUGGI" (Kahlil Caesar), a Caribbean-born artist with over 30 years of artistic experience, and "Chevy" Johnson, winner of the 2025 Cypress Cove Body Painting Competition, and an accomplished competitor and amazing artist in the body painting world, with more talented artists anticipated.

At 7 pm, the finished body art will take the stage at Lakeside Restaurant for a live showcase of these beautiful living canvases. Make dinner reservations by calling 407-933-3588 (Menu Here) and enjoy an evening where art, performance, and creativity come together in a truly unforgettable way.
