The Many Faces Of Face Painting
Face painting is one of the cherished activities of festivals,
carnivals, parades and events across the country. More and more
holidays are beginning to use face painting as a great activity
for kids. Schools can also incorporate it as a station on their
annual field day. Halloween may boast the most face painting out
of any holiday, but summer fairs and county festivals run close
behind. The designs are too innumerable to count. A face can be
transformed in its entirety, into an animal, character or
monster. Face painters often use stencils, which are painted and
then stamped onto the face, and can be popular, too. Whatever
designs the children, or even adult asks the face painter for,
there are a hundred ways to go about getting a great design.
Stencils and stamps are probably the easiest way for beginners
to successfully do face painting. The stencils themselves can be
cleaned with alcohol or wet wipes between paintings for sanitary
reasons. A brush is then used to apply a new color or set of
colors for the next child. Different colors can be used for
separate parts of the stamp. For example, a butterfly can be
outlined in blue and filled in with yellow. The stamp is then
pressed against the person's cheek. This is a good way to get
the lines just right each time.
Many people who do face painting will do everything with a paint
brush. Whiskers, dog eyes, hearts, rainbows and Spider Man are
all popular. For the 4th of July, a face could be painted
completely with red, white and blue stars. For Easter,
decorative eggs, bunny rabbits, flowers and baskets can all
easily be

painted onto the face. Try hearts for Valentine's Day,
or a candy cane face with alternating red and white stripes for
a wild, Christmas gathering. People will surprise face painters
with creative requests, however. Be prepared to paint just about
any character, emblem or color imaginable.
Halloween certainly boasts the biggest number of face painted
ghouls, vampires, monsters and more. For the Hulk, one can
simply paint their faces green. You can also use a simple
Halloween theme, as well. Try bats, a spider web face, or an
eerie yellowish tint for a witch's face. Zombies and ghouls can
cast sunken features under their eyes and paint blood around
their mouths. Of course, the characters don't have to be scary.
It's not hard to paint a clown face, with a little patience for
painting a giant mouth, or using a solid color to enhance a
costume, such as a giant raisin, bear or anything else one can
build or find a costume for. Many Halloween costumes will
provide directions for adding face painting. There are also
plenty of kits in stores or on the web, which are geared for
specific characters, or that come with all the colors for one's
own creativity to come out. In general, these paints are a
little thicker and harder to remove than the typical face paint
used for your everyday festival or event.
