Vine on blue base

Acting on the instructions that the consumer wanted "a full face painting done of something blue" and "don't touch the end of my nose ... it tickles"

  • the face base was applied twice.
    • Each layer was allowed to dry fully.
  • The last layer utilised the contours of the face when different depths of blue were applied.
  • The vine has begun to be applied.
  • rather than leaves little stars and butterflies were painted.... to one side of the face only.
The whole effect became one of continuous change.

Just a little bit

Just a 'quick high light' can be every bit as creative as a full face.

Using three blended colors [white, green and pink], applied with a fine brush, this simple design was applied.  Seven hours later the face paint was still on the face ... as painted.
