 The Guinness World Records world record for the most people painting their fingernails simultaneously is 1,328, achieved by Inglot (Poland) and Major Brands (India) at Palladium in Mumbai, India, on 8 March 2016.

     Guinness World Records also recognized the world record for the most faces painted in one hour by an individual; it was achieved by Gary Cole (USA), sponsored by Grimas, who painted a total of 217 different faces, using a minimum of three colours per face at Almondvale Shopping Centre in Livingston, West Lothian, UK on 1 September 2007.

     "I have been painting my small (4x4") creations (officially called 'Little Views' and unofficially called mini paintings) since Jan 2010. Since I have sold all of my mini paintings (many of them are pre-ordered), I have careful, accurate sales records of all the paintings. Photo: Minis - Susie Grojeans's collection (enlarge photo)

     "I count up all the sales records once or twice a year and keep those tallies. An Accounting firm has verifyied my numbers.

     "Once I saw that the number of my paintings was nearing the 20,000 mark, I checked around for records of this type of thing.
    The closest I could find was that of Pablo Picasso's record which has him listed as the Worlds Most Prolific Painter. Records show him as having done 13,500 paintings and designs, 100,000 prints and engravings, 34,000 book illustrations and 300 sculptures and ceramics. Please note that Picasso's prints, engravings sculptures and ceramics are not paintings and not done on canvas.

    "I was able to paint so many paintings because I truly enjoy my work and so I spend many hours a day in my studio painting. I get orders from all over requesting mini paintings and I don't like to disappoint my art clients. They seem to enjoy my minis as much as I do.

    "I have no help of any kind in creating the paintings so they are all done by one artist. It helps that I am fairly organized in my own way and have developed systems that allow me to paint efficiently.
