What a cute design for Easter! My daughter was watching over my shoulder and we had to go try it right away. I wanted to also say thank you for sharing your information and knowledge. I am just beginning to try to branch out into face-painting, and you have really given me the courage to look beyond my “Itsy Bitsy Spider” and basic designs.
Have a great day!
philadelphia- i have that practice pad and it stained with wolfe black- what do you use to clean it?
Loved that dragon on the face – how about some tips as to how she did it

“Eggcellent” idea! (get it? “egg-cellent?) I am giving an Easter Party this afternoon for my day care class, and I will try this on them. They’re sure to get a kick out of it! Thanks!

I think I’ll be drawing the easter eggs often now even though it’s over cos’ you’ve given me ideas…play with many designs. Ha! the kids will love it. Thank you very much.

Annie
Was very hard to watch it kept stopping every 2 seconds
hi….
I check out the video… its good…
actually last week end i have a face painting competation at my work place.
Wanted to send that pics to . so that u can check them and tell me where i need to improve.
Your blog was really helpful and has given me some ideas for the future. Thank you!
Hi,
i notice on your video for easter egg you were painting on something what was it called again? and is this what we should use to practice our face painting? also you said you were using cake paint.. which one is that and what is the difference
Hi Laura,
This link has a video that will explain everything you need to know about practice pads:
http://facepaintingtips.com/blog/2008/03/26/p2-pro-practice-pad-product-review-video/
This link will explain about cake paints and liquid paints:
http://facepaintingtips.com/blog/2008/02/20/cake-paints-vs-liquid-paints-what-do-you-prefer/
A cake paint is a paint that is solid, and you need to add water to it to use it for painting. Liquids don’t require water to mix with, they’re ready to use immediately.
Hope that helps
Philadelphia
I could not get the video probably bec it was thru youtube which is blocked on my computer however I am able to see your videos
Philadelphia,
I want to congratulate you for your wonderful page, information and tips. You have great customer service skills and your page is loaded with very useful information and resources.
The idea of the videos is wonderful. It is very different to see something on a paper vs a demostration were you see so much details and know hows.
I do have an observation for you, so you can have a more professional look. pay attention to the backgrounds you choose for your videos and demostartion. a white wall is better than a busy wall. If you are going to show a table , have a neutral linen, instead of decorative ones. Or if you are painting someone, put them against a white wall or neutral background. You don want to show your bedroom, house decorations, etc because it makes the videos homy.
please excuseme if I am been to frank for you, But I am so amazed by everything you are doing, that I want you to be as good as you are and better.
I am learning a lot from you.

Hi Ivonne,
Glad to hear you’re enjoying our website, and I am really thankful for your comments, I really do appreciate constructive criticism!
I think you’re absolutely right, and the next videos I do will have a screen behind me, or some sort of neutral white wall etc
I like my videos to feel personal, but I don’t want them to look unprofessional. Those are some good tips, I’ll definately take them on board
Philadelphia
Very easy to follow instructions
I really enjoy the videos as they show me exactly what type of brushes and helps to show me your technique a bit more. The egg is so simple that it may be one of the ones I will use the most during the Easter season.
My daughter does children birthday parties giving horseback rides and I thought I might advertise with her website to go along with her horse rides at birthday parties and the cheek art may be what I will be pursuing because of the fact that it is much quicker and will help to occupy the children while they wait for their turn on the horse. Keep those videos coming, they are thoroughly enjoyable.
Sincerely
Patty
Hi!
Is it easier on the pad than on the cheak?
Where can I go to buy liquid face paint, or what type of paint can you work with best?
You know it is very nice of you to do these videos, I had been looking for help but never found something like this
thanks
Raquel
What type of pad did you use for the easter egg cheek art video? It is just a pad of paper some special practice pad?
Hi Carol, Patty, Raquel and Rita!
To answer your question Raquel:
Painting on a practice pad is just as easy as painting on the skin. And I use cake paints which you can buy here:
Snazaroo Face Paints: Buy Here for Best Prices.
And to answer your question Rita:
I used a P2 Pro Practice Pad that I actually did a video review of, you can watch that here: http://facepaintingtips.com/blog/2008/03/26/p2-pro-practice-pad-product-review-video/
Happy Face Painting everybody!
Philadelphia
I perfer watching actual face painting, it shows a better result. Thanks.
I enjoy watching your practice videos. I have just started to learn so I can paint for my kids parties. I think it would be good for your paints and water to be in the shot when you film your demos…so we can see how much paint/water and the consistency on the brush.
regards,
natalie, australia
I agree with Natalie… might be good to see how you work your cakes into a good consistency, even if you devote one video to such
very simple. easy to follow. please keep the cheek art coming!!!
hi…
all the videos are very nice.. i’m 14 years old and i’m mexican.. i like to send you an e-mail ’cause i’d like to learn more face paintings because here in mexico we don’t have any magazine, book or something like that. i want to learn face paitings like tigers,rabbits,mouse,butterflies and more.. contact me gcmoche@hotmail.com.And more halloween’s paintings
you can help me and maybe you can send me pictures or tips..
if somebody wants to help me send me an e-mail.
thanks a lot.
I have a practice face and have used Artist’s PINK SOAP which is available at AC Moore/Michaels in the painting area. I use it to clean all my face painting supplies.
My practice face stains easily.
Great easter egg design. Very quick…wish I had it last weekend! I just did ovals with polka dots on them. Yours is more polished. Thanks for posting!
this is great for beginners like me who have not yet mastered all the tricks of painting like how to hold the brush. it really is helpful in its simplicity. THANKS
most of the face designs are for girls, what about stuff for boys. i live in trinidad in the west indies and boys want their faces painted as much as girls do. are there any designs aside from superheroes, robots or monsters that a beginner can do?
I love what you do and that u do it with such beauty, skill and passion!
You are an inspiration to a frustrated artist.
I noticed those buses that passed by your home!
Happy Easter and Bounty to you.
