or designs that you are confident with. These patterns can be displayed using a drawing or a photo of a face you have already painted on. Face painting patterns can also be created by you. Once you have used others you may find a desire to create your own face painting design.
To make a simple face painting pattern you must start with a face outline:
To create a face, you need to draw lines to dissect the oval. This will enable you to know where to place your nose, eyes and mouth.
-Draw an oval.
-Draw a faint vertical line down the center of the oval, then another line horizontally across the center. (An oval with a cross through the middle)
-Now draw two faint lines equally spaced, one above the center line and then another below. (One vertical line and three horizontals lines)
-Nostrils placed just below the center line, eyebrows in the top line and the middle of the lips on the lower line.
Now you have you template you can photocopy this or use tracing paper over the top to create your own face painting patterns. Some people like to have the outlines of the design and then creating the color and shading on the actual face, others like to experiment with color and variety of color with the same design.
Perfecting the idea on paper first rather than getting someone to sit for hours while you paint, wipe and re-apply. Using a pattern on paper is also cost effective, since you can fit over 6 designs on one piece of paper, and only having to worry about the cost of crayons, pencils, pens, or acrylic paints, instead of your fabulous face paints.
