Title: First face paint attempt
Post by: Areyouhappydad on October 31, 2013, 01:47:41 PM

I know there are some very talented face painters out there. This is my first attempt on my girls. I found using the brush difficult and putting on the black and white hard to put on. I used snazaroo as a beginner but understand there are better on the market. Think I will keep this as a purely family fun thing. I did copy the designs from Internet pictures.

They look good already.
Your girls are adorable and with practice you will gain speed and skill.

There are actually some great conventions that combine Balloon Art, Face/Body Art and Magic.

I do not know where you live or your financial situation, but

www.FPBAconvention.com (http://www.fpbaconvention.com) is good.

or

www.KapitalKidvention.com (http://www.kapitalkidvention.com) is also a really well attended one.

or

There are also several clown conventions that can help in many aspects too.

There are also lots of youtube videos.

Good luck.

For your first attempt Stuart they are pretty good. There are plenty of face painting jams around the country, I'm attending one in Manchester on the 13th November.

Thanks for the kind comments.
My issue with jams and workshops is that they are either really far away or, as is more often the case, they are during term time (and mid week) so I am never going to be able to get to any.
Still, if my mid life crisis comes to a head, maybe that will change! :D

I do believe a few of the face painting events are in School holidays as they need the children to turn up to paint their faces.

Can I book you Roger for a day next year, face painting made easy, or 10 second faces seems a good name for your masterclass series.

I know you like your balloon pumps, so you probably should get one of these.

It allows you to do each face more quickly. :o
