Face Painting

“Face Painting: Over 30 fun faces to paint, with simple step-by-step instructions” by Karen Harvey

There is something magical about face painting! Wouldn’t you agree?  With a little face paint you can feel yourself transformed into anything you want to be.  It also doesn’t hurt that you usually find face painting booths at magical places like fairs, parties, and parades.  I’ve always wanted to give it a try and this is the perfect book to help me as a total and complete beginner.

The whole front section of this book is dedicated to sharing the tips you would need to get started.  It explains the different types of materials you will need and the different techniques used in successful face painting.  There are over 30 face painting patterns outlined in this book and each one is rated on level of difficulty, includes a materials list, and takes you through the step by step process with photos and explanations of what technique and what brush to use.  It makes it look clear enough that I think this halloween I may be ready to give it a go!  I included an interior photo of one of my favorite “faces” below.  Happy painting!
