SCHICKSALE - Prosopagnosie: Claudia Kozeny-Pelling leidet an Gesichtblindheit und kann manchmal ihren Sohn nicht erkennen
*** Mother describes 'stress' of face blindness condition which has left her unable to recognise her colleagues or young sonBy Molly Powell, PA Real Life A woman with face blindness has said the condition can be "stressful" and "embarrassing", as it has left her unable to recognise people, including colleagues and her son, if they change any small detail about their appearance.Claudia Kozeny-Pelling, 45, from Oxford, is a translator and SEO content writer in English and German, originally from Bavaria, Germany, and has prosopagnosia, a condition also known as facial agnosia or face blindness.She has been known not to recognise colleagues if she sees them outside work, or acquaintances who have changed their appearance slightly, like not wearing their usual jacket or getting a haircut.She was even unable to recognise her son Sam when he was dressed up in a school play as a toddler.Despite the embarrassment and frustration it can cause, there is no treatment available and Claudia has only told a few people she has it - because when she has discussed it in the past, she was not believed.According to the NHS, face blindness often affects people from birth, and it is estimated about 1.5 million people in the UK have developmental prosopagnosia.Claudia has strategies to figure out who people are, and describes it as "putting a jigsaw together". The strategies include memorising people’s voices, a piece of clothing they often wear, or the way they walk.Claudia always thought she was bad with faces but, looking back, she remembers having face-blind incidents as a teenager."I remember one time somebody showed me a group picture," she said.“And I pointed out myself, but it was in fact a boy who had similar features to me - a similar short haircut and glasses.”Another moment that sticks out to Claudia is when her son, Sam, 13, was a toddler in nursery school and she went to watch his play with her husband, Charlie, 44, an app developer.She said: “All the children we *** Loc

SONDERKONDITIONEN: Satzpreis! Will Chatlosh crochet portraits (2) (PA Real Life) *** Design student crochets huge multi-coloured yarn portraits of iconic
figures including Marilyn Monroe using patterns he has designed
By Jack Clover, PA Real Life
A design student is taking the world of portraiture by storm with his giant crocheted
artworks of iconic figures like Marilyn Monroe.
Will Chatlosh, 19, has shattered the myth that crochet is "just for grannies" by producing a
series of stunning four feet square portraits during the pandemic using patterns he has
designed.
But Will, who lives with his medical assistant mum Tanya, 51, and sister Ava, 17, in Grand
Rapids, Michigan, USA, admits that his painstaking attention to detail means each picture
can take 100 hours - meaning he could not realistically sell them for less than £1,500 to
£2,000.
He said: "My close friends do make fun of me, saying, 'Will, you're such a grandma for
crocheting and knitting.'
"Because people who do needlework like to make sweaters and stuff, I think most people
think of that as 'girly'.
"Also, I feel like it's always seen as something not a lot of young people do.
"But now everyone knows what I do, they see the end result an d they're all really
supportive."
One of the only crochet artists in the world to specialise in portraits, Will, who is single, has
created likenesses of American politicians and public figures like high court judge Ruth Bader
Ginsburg.
The teenager, who has been crocheting since he was 11, has also produced an incredible
portrait of George Floyd - whose murder inspired the Black Lives Matter movement - and, of
course, he has 'painted' Marilyn in yarn.
A fan of knitting, too, he finds crochet more versatile and loves using his needle to create
amazing patterns with vibrantly coloured acrylic yarn.
He said: "The main difference between crochet and knitting, although I think they can be
used to create a lot of the same stuff, is that crochet is d

By Jack Clover, PA Real Life
A design student is taking the world of portraiture by storm with his giant crocheted
artworks of iconic figures like Marilyn Monroe.
Will Chatlosh, 19, has shattered the myth that crochet is "just for grannies" by producing a
series of stunning four feet square portraits during the pandemic using patterns he has
designed.
But Will, who lives with his medical assistant mum Tanya, 51, and sister Ava, 17, in Grand
Rapids, Michigan, USA, admits that his painstaking attention to detail means each picture
can take 100 hours - meaning he could not realistically sell them for less than £1,500 to
£2,000.
He said: "My close friends do make fun of me, saying, 'Will, you're such a grandma for
crocheting and knitting.'
"Because people who do needlework like to make sweaters and stuff, I think most people
think of that as 'girly'.
"Also, I feel like it's always seen as something not a lot of young people do.

Toni as the Queen (PA Real Life/Collect) *** Mum who taught herself to face paint while working in a nursery transforms herself
into everyone from Trump to Mr Bean using her make up bag
By Erin Cardiff, PA Real Life
*With video contact video@pamediagroup.com
A former nursery nurse who taught herself make up skills by painting childrens faces
at work is using her incredible talent to transform herself into famous people - ranging
from Donald Trump to Mr Bean.
Toni-Louise Fay's knack for face painting, which saw her being booked for children's
birthday parties, has come into its own during the Covid-19 lockdowns, when she has
made herself up as everyone from Boris Johnson to Eminem.
A nursery nurse for 10 years, she decided to switch careers during her maternity
leave in 2017 after having her daughter, Harper-Rae, three - enrolling on a two-year
special effects make up course.
Now studying for a second make up degree at UCEN Manchester, she has
entertained herself and her family during the pandemic, by making herself look like a
dead ringer for everyone from Mr Bean to Eastenders' Dot Cotton.
Toni, 30, of Rossendale, Lancashire, who funds her studies with part time cleaning
work, said: I started out completely self-taught.
"Id watch tutorials on Instagram and YouTube, then have an experiment myself with
whatever I could find in the house.
During lockdown, I havent had anybody else to practise on, so I had no choice but to
use my own face.
There are only so many different colourful eyeshadow looks you can do, so I started
thinking outside the box and going for famous faces instead.
Always a great lover of make up, one of Tonis favourite parts of her former role as a
nursery nurse was face painting for the children.
Soon she was such a dab hand with a brush and palette that she began earning extra
pin money by working at parties for local parents.

A former nursery nurse who taught herself make up skills by painting childrens faces
at work is using her incredible talent to transform herself into famous people - ranging
from Donald Trump to Mr Bean.
Toni-Louise Fay's knack for face painting, which saw her being booked for children's
birthday parties, has come into its own during the Covid-19 lockdowns, when she has
made herself up as everyone from Boris Johnson to Eminem.
A nursery nurse for 10 years, she decided to switch careers during her maternity
leave in 2017 after having her daughter, Harper-Rae, three - enrolling on a two-year
special effects make up course.
Now studying for a second make up degree at UCEN Manchester, she has
entertained herself and her family during the pandemic, by making herself look like a
dead ringer for everyone from Mr Bean to Eastenders' Dot Cotton.
Toni, 30, of Rossendale, Lancashire, who funds her studies with part time cleaning
work, said: I started out completely self-taught.
"Id watch tutorials on Instagram and YouTube, then have an experiment myself with
whatever I could find in the house.
During lockdown, I havent had anybody else to practise on, so I had no choice but to
use my own face.
There are only so many different colourful eyeshadow looks you can do, so I started
thinking outside the box and going for famous faces instead.

A flick of a make-up brush is all it takes for Manchester student Beth Gallagher to become
a dead ringer for anyone from Boris Johnson to Joe Exotic.
Preferring a fresh-faced look herself, Beth, 25, has set social media platform TikTok alight
with her amazing collection of celebrity looks, which she creates on her own face - like an
artist painting a canvas - in less than an hour, using the contents of her make-up bag.
She said: Ive always loved having fun with make-up, and using myself as a canvas, but
I only started doing the celebrity transformations during the nationwide lockdown.
I never expected them to do as well as they have, but people seem to love them,
especially on TikTok. Some of my videos have about 120,000 views on there.
Ive only done one woman so far The Queen. I prefer to do male celebrities, as it is
such a contrast to how I normally look. You want that wow factor of before and after so
people stop scrolling and take a closer look.
Beth, who is studying special effects at Manchester UCE and hopes to work in TV, has
loved art all her life and began making a name for herself as a body painter when she left
school.
Starting out five years ago, she was drawn to quirky designs, or characters from her
favourite TV shows and, in 2017, won a competition to paint a design live as part of a
window display in a swanky department store.
Using her dad, Michael Gallagher, 52, as her canvas, she spent three -and-a-half hours
transforming him into a White Walker from the hit series Game of Thrones.
Invited to enter the contest again the following year, this time she turned her pal into a
clown on the shop floor.
The body painting can take a long time, as its really det

a dead ringer for anyone from Boris Johnson to Joe Exotic.
Preferring a fresh-faced look herself, Beth, 25, has set social media platform TikTok alight
with her amazing collection of celebrity looks, which she creates on her own face - like an
artist painting a canvas - in less than an hour, using the contents of her make-up bag.
She said: Ive always loved having fun with make-up, and using myself as a canvas, but
I only started doing the celebrity transformations during the nationwide lockdown.
I never expected them to do as well as they have, but people seem to love them,
especially on TikTok. Some of my videos have about 120,000 views on there.
Ive only done one woman so far The Queen. I prefer to do male celebrities, as it is
such a contrast to how I normally look. You want that wow factor of before and after so
people stop scrolling and take a closer look.
Beth, who is studying special effects at Manchester UCE and hopes to work in TV, has
loved art all her life and began making a name for herself as a body painter when she left
school.
Starting out five years ago, she was drawn to quirky designs, or characters from her
favourite TV shows and, in 2017, won a competition to paint a design live as part of a
window display in a swanky department store.
Using her dad, Michael Gallagher, 52, as her canvas, she spent three -and-a-half hours
transforming him into a White Walker from the hit series Game of Thrones.
Invited to enter the contest again the following year, this time she turned her pal into a
clown on the shop floor.
The body painting can take a long time, as its real
