Free Face Painting Ideas

If you are looking for free face painting ideas or just starting out and you want to know how to start face painting, here are some free face painting ideas to get you going. Firstly simple kids party face painting, (for young kids) is not difficult. If you are a mom you are probably already using make-up yourself and that is really all that the quality face paints are. If you are not a mom with make-up experience you probably have some artistic ability from school days of art lessons or drawing or painting. Even for those who have not a stitch of artistic ability, you will be able to follow the simple instructions and tryout your first face.
Why not Make Money face Painting ?

What You Will Need

1) Set of face paint (see our Face Paint Shop for a selection of different brands of paints and accessories) This can be a little bit overwhelming since there are tons of different suppliers. Some of the brands of professional face paint are reasonably priced and are much easier to use than the cheap acrylics. Snazaroo for example offers a small startup palette at a reasonable price to get you going and you can order it online.

2) Set of soft paint brushes of various sizes. Again our online shop, or your local art supply store should be able to help in this regard.

3) Set of small throw away sponges and tissues and cotton wool. Ear buds and matches or a small stick are also useful for making dots or fine lines.

4) A glass of water for the water soluble face paints.

5) A comfortable chair for your model and one for yourself, plus a small table for your supplies

6) A mirror to enable your model to view their face once completed.

7) Bucket of clean water, soap and a towel, for washing of any excess paint.

8) Why not list yourself as an artist on the website:Artistic Cafe offers free advertising and promotional services to creative people such as photographers, artists, musicians, models, actors, etc. Promote yourself, your art, a website, your company or services, all with direct links that will send interested viewers and traffic to your contact info.

9) If you are based in the USA then have a look at: Festival Network Online - Find craft shows, art festivals, and music festivals nationwide This is a site to find events in your area that may provide face painting opportunities. A basic listing is Free.

10) If you are already a face painter and you have your own website you may be looking for places to get free face painting links to your site. The following Art Directory has a free face painting category and where one can add a link. Click on the image below to add your link. Artdesy.com - An Art Directory

Free Designs and Ideas

The most common designs that kids love are varied and follow whatever is popular at the movies and on TV at the time. The old classics are animals, fairies, super hero's, scary monsters, butterflies, bugs Etc. Kids colouring in books are a great resource for simple designs. Also the favorite story books are also good since it is a familiar design that the child feels safe with, especially for young children. Some kids just don't like being painted at all and kind of feel like you are invading their space. Don't force these kids but rather see if they would like a small pattern or temporary tattoo on their hands or arms.
