Workshop Dates 2012:

The third year of MBAC proved to be bigger and better than ever! With more categories, including brush &  sponge, Amateur, special FX, extreme hair and makeup & face painting. There were around 40 + competitors all painting thier hearts out!

front view: 20,000 leagues under the sea

A theme of “wired for sound” was given to all categories, and we set out to interpret this in our own way. Points are given for originality and interpretation of theme, in addition to composition, use of colour & technique. Body painters are given 6 hours to paint their piece and facepainters 2 hours.  Let me tell you, that time flies by!  The overall standard of work was very high,  I was very pleased to place 2nd.

Mem Bourke travelled from New Zealand to present the big prize: A trip to New Zealand to compete in the New Zealand Body art awards in October 2011. this is a huge event, check out the website here , Artists and Models also travelled far and wide to participate.

The event is well supported by the community, check out the full sponsors list here to see all the wonderful businesses that have supported this event. The Sunday Age photographed the event and you can see some wonderful images online here. Wow I could go on and on, there are so many involved and its hard to mention only a few, Thankyou to Ria, who’s vision, hard work and determination has created a wonderful event for us in Melbourne, I am really looking forward to next year, perhaps I’ll see some of you there? here are some pics for you:  Click on image to see larger view.

Hello Face Painting friends.

I had a lovely job a few weeks ago where I painted a family for a Masquerade Party. I had around 10 minutes per design including talking to them about what they were wearing so my design would complement thier clothes, so these were fairly fast designs…Please note that the family had to travel a way to their event so they left thier clothes and lipstick off until they were there, so they are slightly unfinished.

I have posted some pictures to inspire you with your own mask designs.

Lace Mask-a pretty design to complement a white dress with black sash.

Here are a few tips to help you create your own mask designs:

- Use the figure 8 on its side as guidence, this will give you a good indication of a flattering mask shape that suits all face shapes.

- Use techniques you are comfortable with. This will allow you to confidently create a design on the spot, showcasing your strengths.

- Practice working out designs on your practice head to get an idea of how the shapes will flow on the face.

Filigree Butterfly, a jewel inspired mask

- Have some fun and replicate the outfit worn by the person.

- Add liquid glitter, gems and even feathers for extra glamour.

- Google “masks” in google images online to get inspired by a huge array of mask designs.

- think outside the square – a snake wrapped around the eyes could become a suitable mask.

here are some designs from the family I painted, and a few extra I have painted recently.

Once you have gathered a precious collection of brushes for your face (and body) painting it is important to take good care of them. properly looked after, your brushes will serve you well and will last a long time.

Here are some tips for brush care below, I look forward to your tips too.
Click here to Leave a Comment/Ask a Question.

Keep your white white! I use a seperate brush for painting with white, this saves me from trying to wash all of the black or colour out of the brush before using the white. I save time this way and I also keep my white bright instead of grey. I also keep a brush (in a couple of sizes) for black and another for colours.

Regularly wash your brushes with soap or brush cleaner to help them stay in good condition. You can rinse them in 99% alcohol to steralise them – they will need to air dry. Sometimes I use brush shaper on my clean brushes to help the bristles stay in good shape. I dip the brush in and arrange the bristles and leave to air dry. The bristles will remain stiff and hold thier shape, the stiffness disapears the next time you use the brush.

Storage. I like to keep my brushes in a “brush wallet” I can stand it up ready to use at a job, then fold it for storing the brushes when not in use.

self standing brush wallet for use and storage.

At a recent workshop I took this picture of a participant’s great idea for her brushes while working; she has stretched netting over a container holding it in place with a band. its a great way to have your brushes ready to use at a job, keeping  them seperate.

"brush cup"

Important: Please don’t leave brushes standing bristle down in water! They will bend and will never be the same again. Also if you have wooden handles these will become swollen causing the  paint to crack and chip off.

Hello Painting Friends,

The Australian Body Art Awards (ABAA) was a great success last month – it is always wonderful to be surrounded by Face and Body artists. I enjoyed teaching, competing and learning. I was also delighted to win First place in the Special FX Body Painting competition. The prize for that event was sponsored by bodyfx.co.nz  inspiring  me to create a turorial video using their special FX. I have also used the skin pallette, available from here, in this video.

Hello Everybody,

Wow can you believe it’s February already!  This month I am very excited to be an instructor at the Australian Body Art Awards Convention. This event began last year as a Face and Body painting competition, held in Melbourne, Australia, and has grown this year into a bigger competition with more categories to enter and a 3 day convention with additional pre and post convention classes being offered by a host of talented International Instructors including: Yolanda Bartram, Lucy  Bruillard and Christina Davison. Check out the website link below to find out more about this huge event for Australian Face and Body Painters. Come and visit if you can join us to either enter a competition, watch the awards or participate in one of the many classes on offer. I hope I get to meet some of you there.

I love all of the feedback and responses I get to my posts, and I really enjoy hearing about how you all do things, I have learnt from some of your tips and I am sure many others have too. This month I have decided to open up a topic that is usually a big discussion in my beginners class, the issue of Hygiene when face painting. I will post some of my tips on the topic and would love to hear your thoughts and ideas too.

common sense: plays an important role in hygiene matters. as I am sure most of you are aware that it is important not to paint over broken skin/cold sores to minimise the spread of contageous conditions. Even if the parent assures you its ok! discreetly offering to paint on the arm or elswhere instead so that the child still has a design without feeling embarressed is a tactful way to manage these situations.

regular kit cleaning: so that the paints are wiped clean, my brushes and equipent are regularly cleaned, steralized and air-dried. Throw out broken and untitdy items. This not only is essential for professional presentation, but it is also more hygienic and parents will notice that you take care.

sponges: Personally I like to use a fresh sponge per child. I find the benefit not only in presenting a hygienic approach, which parents have commented favourably on, but that it suits my technique too. I like load up my sponges with colours suitable  for the particular design and find that they end up with lots of colours on them anyway so I couldn’t really re-use them if I wanted to!

antibacterial gel: its great to have this on hand, regularly cleaning your hands with this between children will help to minimise the spread of bacteria.

I look forward to reading your ideas and comments.

Hello Face Painting Friends,

I have had a very busy month this July teaching Face and Body Art workshops in Melbourne, Gold Coast and Darwin, Australia.

workshop demonstration designs painted by Ambah

Teaching is wonderful, I get to meet new people, visit places I haven’t been before and my students always teach me new things too! I find that when I teach my students how to paint something they mix the techniques they have learnt with thier own creativity and individual style to give it thier own “flavour”

Teaching also inspires me to continue to improve and upgrade my skills to keep the workshops fresh and relevant to our ever evolving industry. I also love to teach the techniques that really work for me in busy job environments – line busters! designs that I can whip out to keep the long line moving along, as this is what the majority of my face painting work involves.

CLICK HERE TO LEAVE A COMMENT & ASK QUESTIONS OR
TELL US WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT WORKSHOPS!

I would love to hear your tips for keeping the line moving during busy events…….I like to have a list of ideas for the child to choose from, rather than a picture board, this enables me to paint the quick or details version of the design depending on how busy I am.

The list suggest simple themes, such as fairy princess: rainbow, flower, ocean, ect they choose the design and variation and I get to create something just for them, within the time frame I have.

Queensland Workshop

I have some workshop images to give you a taste of the beautiful work my students created, to the left is a pile of heads from the face painting day in the Gold Coast, we were practicing scary boy designs! with Lovly Erinn a real model among the practice heads….

The final workshop for Gold Coast was the Body Painting day, I was so impressed by the beautiful work. The theme reflected the previous day’s jewellery and lace workshop.

Body Painting Day in the Gold Coast

I have included 4 images, although there were so many lovely designs it was hard to pick just 4.

Karin’s design is her first ever body paint, also there is a beautiful image of talented Milana’s work .

My final Destination was Tropical Darwin, for some warm workshops.

I was teaching community organisations, and had the pleasure of introducing many new people to the wonderful world of Face Painting.

My final image is a montage of some of the many demonstration designs I painted at each of the classes in Melbourne, Gold Coast and Darwin.

Phew a busy month!

I had some fun painting special FX with my son recently, we are helping out with a school project for my nephew. It’s certainly something that the boys (and girls too) really love!

I get quite  a few requests to paint bruises and cuts on boys and girls when face painting and I thought I’d share some ideas with you. Modelled by my son Felix.

Bruises:

this can be used for black eyes and bruises on the body.

1. Wet the sponge and squeeze out the water so it is slightly damp. The paint is best applied only slightly wet so it goes on lightly.

2. Dab the end of the sponge in the purple, dab under the eye, so it looks like bags under the eyes, also dab the outer corner of the eye and a little over the top.

3. Use the other end of the sponge and dab yellow on the brow of the eye and under the outer corner, this is to make it look puffy.

4. Dab some red onto the sponge and add a little under the bottom of the eye, and the side of the nose.

5. Lightly add some black over some of the purple areas

6. Ahhh beautiful! A shiner.

Click Here to Ask a Question or Share Your Ideas!

Experiment with the wax to create wounds any where, slash wounds, bullet holes, try having a nail or object sticking out of the wax!!

1. Roll the wax and sit on skin, dip your finger in water and smooth out the edges to blend into the skin. Also use the spatula and your finger nail.

2. Use the spatula to cut a groove into the wax. Paint a thin black line in here to make the cut look deeper.

3. Get some cake blood on the sponge, a bit wetter than for the black eye, and dab lightly onto the wax and around the wound a bit. You can also sponge some on the skin to create a graze.

4. Add some black lines to the graze. Use the liquid blood to ooze from the wound and graze….

1. Flatten a small bit of tooth wax.

2. Dry your tooth with your finger and squish the wax onto the tooth.

I used snazaroo products for the special FX, the water based wax, blood and cake blood are wonderful. I used my standard paint kit for the black eye.

Hello Face Painting Friends,

Today I am posting a step by step design for you. It is a dinosaur mask that is very popular with the boys – and occasional dad too.

This was first published in issue 11 of Illusion Magazine.

Illusion is a magazine especially for Face and Body Artists, I have contributed several step by step designs to past issues & have just designed a special one for their upcoming book: Illusion and Friends (2).

(Click Here to Tell Us What You Think!)

I am a fan of it as it covers so many aspects of our industry, with plenty of Step by Steps by many different Artists to try out, reader’s pages, buisiness tips, great interviews on Artists and much more for all levels….

I find myself regularly flicking through old editions and gaining new inspiration from them……and no I’m not getting paid to write this   …there are other great publications relating to our industry too, including:

www.americanfacepainter.com published quaterly, this magazine features step by steps based on a particular them each issue.

www.brushstrokesmag.com an online publication with great step by steps, interviews, reviews and more.

And of course www.facepaintingtips.com which has fantastic ebooks that you can download instantly with fun step-by-step face painting designs!

Boys Face Painting Designs: One of the biggest problems face painters have is not knowing what designs to use for boys.

And even if you know what designs to use, alot of the time the problem is not having the right techniques to make those designs really ‘pop’ or be ‘scary’ or give it that ‘wow factor’.

So, I found the best instructional help out there for boys face painting designs The “Boys Will Be Boys” DVD from one of the best face painting teachers in the world – Mark Reid!

Mark Reid is a good friend of mine, I’ve taken his classes, interviewed him, modeled for him and now I’m promoting his new DVD because I just know that his designs, techniques and teaching skills are first class.

It doesn’t matter whether you’re a complete beginner or you’ve been painting for years – you will learn a tonne from this internationally renowned artist and…

Never again will you wonder what to do with the boy standing in line in front of you…

Because you’ll learn everything you need to know to work with confidence on boys face painting designs!

Top 10 Reasons NOT to take Business Classes at FABAIC!

By Katie Hunt

(My good friend and collegue in the face painting business world!)

10.) Face Paint and Body Art is really just a hobby for you.

9.) You are secretly wealthy and just use the face painting and body art as a way to hang out with common folk.

8.) Your calendar is so full of great paying gigs that what you really need is a class on how to say ‘no’ to more work.

7.) The recession/economy hasn’t affected your bookings at all.

6.)You fear actually getting paid to do what you love and losing your amateur standing.

5.) You already know how to expand and build your business even during a recession.

4.) Your website is perfect and needs no help to improve.

B You think being a great artist is all that is needed to get booked.

2.) The internet holds no mystery for you. You understand it and use it and all the free services and programs to their full advantage.

And the Number 1 reason NOT to take a Business Class at FABAIC is……

You don’t want to make a living doing what you love!

Of course, if you DO want to take a business class at FABAIC, please join Lori Hurley, Philadelphia Tivoli and me – Katie Hunt, for our classes or the panel discussion at FABAIC.

10 Reasons Why You CAN NOT miss the 2009 FABAIC
The Face & Body Art International Convention

1. You’d miss your chance to network with over 400 painters from around the world

2. You’d miss your chance to hang with Nick & Brian Wolfe, Jam with Mark Reid, Airbrush with Donna Nowak, Find Your Arty Brush with Rebecca, Bling yourself out with Erika, and paint the town with over 40 other awesome instructors.

3.You’d miss your chance to see the newest products on the market and be the first to have them

4. You wouldn’t get to escape the snowy weather or enjoy the GORGEOUS Florida sun

5. You wouldn’t be able to find the secrets to survival during a recession with Lori Hurley, Katie Hunt and Philadelphia Tivoli

6. You wouldn’t get to compete for over $5,000 in cash and prizes at our first annual Face & Body Art Competition

7. You wouldn’t get to experience the amazing Art Gone Wild Gala event of the year!

8. You’d miss the worlds largest hands on face and body art jam with over 50 International instructors

9. You’d miss the opportunity to get a limited edition FABAIC custom shirt, goody bag, and Apron

10. You’d miss the event that transforms painters into professionals.

Here are the details for face painting courses, classes and events that are happening around the world in April 2009 and beyond.

Lynne McKay Face Painting Class
Kansas City, Kansas, USA

My class will consist of sponge and brushstroke techniques enabling you to achieve quick and easy designs that will WOW!! your customers and make the children beam from ear to ear!! The class will be aimed specifically at beginners and intermediate level Face Painters. It will be a full day class of around 3 hours in each session.

The morning session will be focusing on Sponging techniques. You will learn how to use your sponge to your advantage, choosing colours that go well together to suit the tone of the child’s skin, blending techniques and double and triple loading sponges.

We will then have a break. Depending on the venue I’m hoping to include some lunch within the price, this will not only satisfy our tummies but it’ll be a great opportunity to all sit down together, have a chat and share experiences!

The afternoon session will be Brushstrokes.
You will learn how to test your brush for consistency of the paint, learn how to make sure you don’t get those “muddy streaks” when using black and white together (as an example) and learn how to achieve swirls, curls, and perfect crisp clean lines.
When you are finished with the class, your skill will be much improved enabling you to get those bookings that you’ve always wanted!!

• What are the most important things to know when starting a business?

• How do you know which types of advertising are working and which ones are not?

• What is the difference, between an agent, and like an entertainment supplier?

Your instructions and videos are like having a silent partner there to give advice and guide you through trying to turn a hobby into a profitable business. Thank you for taking the time to help your fellow face painters to achieve their goals.

Face Painting JAM
Westminster Maryland USA

We just recently started this jam (last month) and hope to meet some other artists from the area as we go along. We had an artist and a twister form Frederick last month come out and we all had a great time.

The space is not huge ( bring a smalll kit?) , but adequate, with room enough to set up on their tables and create. The clientele are generally up for being experimented on. We used to paint there regularly last summer so they are pretty amenable. You can bring henna/ jagua/glitter/mica tatts to practice too, they really love that. We were allowed to accept tips last time and we basically had whoever painted the tipper to keep their tips.

They have GREAT coffee and some lite sandwich fare (also really good), so come out if you can. We will be trying to do this the first Friday of each month.Contact Info

FX Techniques & Halloween Faces
Costa Mesa, California, USA

There’s so much that could be covered that I would like to find out what the group wants before I make definite plans on what we will be doing. There will be a small materials fee for the FX materials tba once I know what we’ll be doing for sure.

My general plan would be to cover both vamp & gory, going over the most requested faces. I’d like to touch on prostetics and give you an opportunity to play with modeling things like noses, etc. I also wanted to cover how you can make an FX look without investing in special materials.

Just a note: I’m into scary and creepy, but I’m not into violence. There’s enough of that in world that I don’t want to contribute to it. So there will be no designs that intimate that a person has done harm to another like bullet wounds and knives sticking in people. But if someone is stupid enough to walk into a plate glass door (like I did at the body art ball!) then I could see doing a little blood. For those who will be having big lines, I’ve got a great quick cut.

Advanced Studies Face Painting Course at
Advanced Studies 2008 – The Harvest
Fincastle, Virginia, USA

Advanced Studies Face Painting Course. This six hour hands-on progressive face painting course is being offered as part of the Advanced Studies Camp in the Performance Arts and lead by Marcela Murad. It includes instruction on brush and sponge techniques, working with glitter powders and glitter tattoos plus lots of designing ideas that will help you take your face painting to new levels.

Over the last two years we have been preparing the next crop of performing clowns. We started with “Ignite the Fire Within” rekindling the desire to carry the torch of clowning to the next level. We followed that with “Planting the Seeds”, taking new members of the clown community and encouraging them to grow into performers.

“The Harvest ‘08” will be the last of a three-year project – - where we will see the results of the last two years. Each phase – “Ignite the Fire Within”, “Planting the Seeds” and now “The Harvest” has been a complete training program within itself, and this year is no different. If you missed the first years programs, you can catch up with this year’s camp.

I encourage you to come and take advantage of the most incredible staff assembled in the Art of Clowning. I look forward to personally welcoming each one of you to “The Harvest ‘08”.

Festival of Colors
Freiburg Germany

This festival offers an opportunity to show the public that painting faces means more than cheek designs, yeah, it can be art. So we started this competition in 2006 with a mixture of pro-contests and school-contests. We decided to support teenagers and had them compete in their own contests in order to raise a new generation of facepainters that has a new and “innocent” approach.

Face Painting JAM
Westminster Maryland USA

We just recently started this jam (last month) and hope to meet some other artists from the area as we go along. We had an artist and a twister form Frederick last month come out and we all had a great time. The space is not huge ( bring a smalll kit?) , but adequate, with room enough to set up on their tables and create. The clientele are generally up for being experimented on. We used to paint there regularly last summer so they are pretty amenable. You can bring henna/ jagua/glitter/mica tatts to practice too, they really love that. We were allowed to accept tips last time and we basically had whoever painted the tipper to keep their tips. They have GREAT coffee and some lite sandwich fare (also really good), so come out if you can. We will be trying to do this the first Friday of each month.

Face Painting Tips

Here’s an article from the Sunderland Echo that I thought you’d like about a new face painting course at the Open College Network in the UK.

Chance to Brush Up on Face Painting

Karen Routledge looks over the work of student Jeanett Chapman.

By Sue Watson
Fancy a qualification in painting funny faces?

The country’s first accredited course in face painting has been set up on Wearside for students to brush up their skills.

Washington woman Karen Routledge, an education and funding consultant, has teamed up with Sunderland Community Voluntary Service (CVS), to deliver the course for the Open College Network.

Karen, who has been face painting for fun for 20 years, was holding a training course in fund-raising when one of the women asked if she would go along to a community group.

She said: “I thought she meant would I go along and do some face painting for an event, but then she said that actually she wanted me to teach the others how to face paint.”

Since then Karen has held several sessions in the region, which have always been fully booked and has held courses in other parts of the country.

She said: “It is mainly a practical-based course providing exercises in the art itself and proves that everyone can face paint successfully and have fun, too.

“Although mainly designed for community groups and schools the course is also attracting bookings from businesses, parents and individuals wishing to pursue face painting as a career.”

As part of the course each delegate will receive a professional face painting kit for more than 700 faces including paints, brushes, sponges and display photographs.

All practising is done on child-size model heads during the day-long course, which is open for ages 14 and over.

Karen is planning the next course to take place in Washington on Saturday, December 8, and will be doing another course at Sunderland CVS centre in the New Year.

The course costs £99 including the Open College Network Accreditation and Certificate and the professional face painting kit, which is worth about £60.

Anyone wanting further details should contact Karen on Karen@karenroutledge.co.uk or telephone 415 4090.

The UK Face painting & Body Art Convention is the biggest gathering of face painters in the UK. It’s a great place to learn all the latest face painting techniques and see live demonstrations to further your face painting skills. Its’ a great market place to buy all your face painting supplies and entertainment needs, you’ll meet “International Demonstrators”, and get to join in the many “Hands-On” sessions in nail art, stencilling, balloon models, body art and much much more!

I highly recommend it if you’re a face painter and you’re in the area, it sounds like its going to be fun this year…the theme will be” Wild in the Jungle”!

It will be held on 9th-12th November 2007 at the Aztec Hotel & Spa, Aztec Business Park.

Go to the UK Face Painting Convention Site for more information and hurry because as of the 23rd July, there are only 40 tickets left!

The World Body Painting Festival is the first of its kind in the world and has become the Mecca of Body Painting. It will be held in Seeboden, Austria from the 16th – 22nd July this year.

If you’re hearing about this for the first time, its probably too late to get tickets or plan a trip to Austria. But if you really love face and body painting, then maybe you should think about going next year!

 
The body painting work at the event is of the highest artistic quality and artists from over 40 countries will be there to show off their work and to compete in the body painting world championships. The world champions are chosen in the 3 main categories – Brush/Sponge – Airbrush and – Special Effects, as well as in one special category, the night contest for UV effects. 

It’s Europe’s most colorful event and the biggest art event in the body painting world with thousands of visitors coming along every year.

There will be workshops and classes for beginners and advanced artists taught by only the best in their profession.

They’ll offer workshops in the areas of body painting, airbrush body painting, face painting, special effects, body deco, beauty make up, UV effects as well as photography and digital artwork.

Their workshops are presented by Kryolan, Brennig, Paradise AQ by Mehron, MAC Cosmetics, Eulenspiegel, Fantasy Worldwide or Wolfe Brothers, to mention a few.

And apart from the body painting, they’ll be music, entertainment and shows to keep you busy!

If you can’t get there this year, definately think about getting ready to go next year. You won’t regret it!
