The chinese opera, and others like it, just wasn't my style; however recently it became interesting.
Perhaps because I started to push myself to do it, or that we moved on to other things like children face painting.
I would love to volunteer my services to children's hospital around christmas time.
Something about face painting, and sparkles, make kids going apeshit.
I taught at an Elementry school a couple years back. I worked with a well known artist around Montreal, and did a huge collage with the children. I would teach them about colors, technic, and make sure they weren't eating glue.
Many people have been skipping class for lack of interest. So we are always uneven numbers.
After I have made coffee for the class (I have became coffee bitch, since I'm class president, it is my machine, and I'm probably drinking it the most) people have partnerd up, so I'll work on myself.
Blending cream colors are hard enough, imagine doing it backwards in a mirror? Yeah.
We use pancake and cream makeup.
Pancake seems to work better, it dries, and washes off really easy.
Cream colors tend to stay wet, can come off easy if the model moves...so to me they are useless, and you can't layer them.
Each color is pretty expensive.
I rather get into airbrushing them use either of these methods, but thats more for the body.
Tromp d'oeil is another way of face or body painting, that the artist paints on the face like a canvas. It is an illusion.
We tried andy warhol since its a great example. Others can get very intense the detailing and such. If you've never painted before, then It might not be as easy for one to accomplish.
My Face painting exam.
The magical mirror from Snow White.
Random mask, that I added leopard print to the side, so decided to finish it by adding it to my neck.
Another type of mask. Done on myself. Blended pancake colors, with sparkles.
Children face painting. Lizard creature!
