Perfect practice with 5 awesome brushes - Face Painting Made Easy PART 4

[@jacprice1687]

I've been putting off learning facepainting for over 2 years. I bought a basic beginners kit of around $200, and it's just sitting there. Finally decided to look for tutorials and found yours. They are SOOOO very thorough with clear communication and cover HEAPS. You've done and amazing job...thank you sooo sooo sooo much!!! VERY generous of you!

[@SophiesTipps]

That's so good to hear, thank you very very much and good luck in your face painting adventures! The first step is always the hardest...

[@Super_Alex1234]

Yes. We will need the original manufacturer

Where dig you buy?

[@ShannenBaritell]

I just now found your channel and I'm not sure how I survived without your tips and tricks! You walk through the steps so well!

[@SophiesTipps]

+Shannen Barite That's so good to hear, thank you! So glad you found me 😍

[@BakkiBoo]

You are amazing!! These tutes [ALL of them] are so CLEAR & CONCISE & EASY to understand! I had been struggling with how to load my brush & how to do the brush strokes and never knew how much difference different BRUSHES actually made! I have been a newbie & stayed a newbie for 2 years using wrong slow bad techniques! I only recently decided to give this another go & try again to get good results fast. Your quality vids & channel has helped me so much- I now feel more confident and can get out and about and use these AMAZING techniques that you so eloquently have displayed...I'm practising on my arm all the time now - I'm so CHUFFED with what I am now able to do! You've unlocked the missing piece of the puzzle for me! ...THANK YOU SO MUCH SOPHIE! Faery Dusted Blessings

[@SophiesTipps]

Bakki Boo Wow, what a wonderful message to read! You are so kind and I appreciate your feedback very much! I'm happy that my video motivated you to continue painting and helped you to improve your skills. It's true that having good brushes and quality paints help a lot - but there is no substitute for practice! It takes time and patience, keep going! I wish you the best of luck and again... thank you!

[@askiljan]

Thank you for making this easy to understand. You are great teacher. Please keep making videos.

[@georgiasteel4215]

One of the better face painting tutorials on KZbin. Thank you! (I've been face painting for over 30 years, but I find in life, we are constantly learning no matter how much experience we have!)

[@SophiesTipps]

Absolutely ,there is no limit to creativity and passion. Thank you for your lovely comment.

Love you.

Thank you for sharing your secrets. They have been very very helpful . The plastic sheet over the picture of the dummy head for practice is BRILLIANT!!

[@SophiesTipps]

+Kari Kidd Glad you like it! It's actually a face on a piece of paper that I plastified using a laminating machine. It's very stable that way and easy to clean with a sponge.

You just blew my mind with that laminated practice face diagram- thank you!!!!

[@SophiesTipps]

[@kristyphillips730]

So glad I found your channel Im a nail tech by trade but ive just been asked to do face painting for my kids junior football club this weekend. I have ordered a starter kit and hoping I'll succeed haha 😄

[@SophiesTipps]

Good for you! You will do great if you already have some artistic talent and know how to use a brush and combine colors. Good luck!

[@kristyphillips730]

@SophiesTipps thank you it was super successfull a few parents were shocked to find out I had never done it prior to the day haha I'm now keen to expand my knowledge in the area and look at offering face painting for other events :)

I love that! Well done ❤️

[@marionesposito7102]

I am still pretty new to face painting and I have learned a lot from just watching your videos. You explain everything so well and do a wonderful job creating your nice clear videos. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge with all of us. Learning from other people is the best way to improve upon the wonderful art of face painting!

[@SophiesTipps]

Marion Esposito That's so kind of you, thank you! My goal is to give the maximum amount of information within each themed 10 minutes video - which is not always easy because there is so much to tell :)

[@darora3]

You are so amazing...once i start watching your videos i watch at least 5 in a row...Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful knowledge in your cute accent...

[@deloresthompson5204]

Just absolutely on point, From the novice to the new face painter on the block.

Iwill continue to support your shared knowledge. Keep on painting on faces. Much appreciation and love.

[@SophiesTipps]

Christine Thompson All beginnings are difficult, don't give up :) I'm happy if my video helped you get started. Don't worry, every talented face painter was a struggling beginner once. All it takes is practice and patience.

[@leopierce3689]

You're an amazing artist. I love drawing, and painting, and I think body painting and face painting is something I could really get into. Thank you so much for sharing your talent and inspiring my creativity.

[@SophiesTipps]

SuperInspire Pierce The technique is slightly different because - I'm sure you've noticed - the skin doesn't "react" the same way as paper or canvas do. However, if you know and like to draw already, I am sure that the transition into face and body painting will be easy for you. It's a lot of fun to use one's creativity in many different ways. Keep it up and have fun!

[@leopierce3689]

SophiesTippsThanks! Sounds cool:-)

[@SophiesTipps]

Marilyn Alvarez That's great, I'm glad I could help along the way. Don't worry, it wasn't easy for me at the beginning either. Just keep practicing and you will see how fast you make progress!

[@elizabethgonzalez4470]

That was super helpful for brand new beginner like myself. I just got done trying to make a simple heart using a one stroke and it was way harder than I thought it would be. This kind of breakdown of the brushes in combination with various strokes is going to be something I keep coming back to. Thank you so much!

[@SophiesTipps]

Glad it was helpful! It's true, at the beginning it seems like the brush doesn't want to "obey" to the hand but trust me, with practice it becomes a little bit easier each time and one day you will do it without even thinking about it! Keep up the practice and have fun! And thank you for the lovely comment.

[@arts4community]

Wonderful, precise teaching, straight to the point without any excess chatter! Thank you.

[@lilytorres2678]

Thanks so much for sharing your experience. I've only had a couple of face painting events and so far I have enjoyed it immensely. Such great info and tips! I will definitely print and laminate a practice face. Also I never considered calligraphy as a needed skill, but teenagers would love that. Maybe you could elaborate on that, and other lettering styles? What about your setup during events? I feel like my table ends up so disorganized after only a few kids:/ Again, thanks for sharing!

[@SophiesTipps]

Lily Torres Thanks so much for your feedback, I'm glad you find some of my tips useful :) Yes the teens love to have names or initials written on their arm but unfortunately I'm not very good at it.... There are a few videos on KZbin where the basic lettering style is explained. Some other face painters (like Wiser for example) do really great stuff in graffiti style and I always thought this would be something I would want to learn at some point... There are so many great things being done all over the place, it's hard to keep up :) However, I personally don't think I am good enough to do a tutorial on that... As far as my face painting table and setup is concerned, I will do a tutorial where I show and explain everything I carry around and how I organise it but I have a few other videos in the pipeline before that one. But don't worry, it's definitely coming! Thanks again and have fun painting!

[@shyamaliperera9486]

I recently started face painting and looking for ideas and tips. Your video was really helpful. I want to watch all of your videos. Just a question, when using different colours, do I need to use different brushes? (If I am using a square brush or any other type). Rinsing and using the same brush takes much time. Please advise me.

[@SophiesTipps]

Awesome! Thank you for your feedback! That's a good question and the answer would depend from one face painter to the another but personally I have about 4 brushes of my favorite sizes (1/4 inch square, #3 round, 08 petal, #1 round and a few more). I do not have one brush for each color, this would be crazy and not possible to handle on the job. However, I try to keep one of each brush for white only, one for midtones (light blues, yellows, pinks, greens, ...), one for black, only and one for darks (dark blue, purples, reds, ...). Brushes are quickly rinced and the color comes off in seconds in water so the change of color is not difficult. However, I find it important to dedicate at least one round brush to black and one to black exclusively. These two colors are anyway the colors most often used for line work. When it comes to sponges, I have one sponge per color "sitting" withing the color cake it belongs to. I will try soon to do a video showing my kit because I get many questions regarding my organisation and I think it will be easier to show it than to try to explain it in writing. I hoped this helped in the meantime. Take care! ☺️

What did you spray in the split cake? love your videos thanks in advance

[@SophiesTipps]

Water, just plain water. It's only to humidify the colors and make them smoother before I rub the sponge or the brush on them.

SophiesTipps Can I ask what you use the brush stroke at 5:24 for? You mentioned that it is one you use a lot. Thanks in advance :) This video was very helpful!

[@natbradbury4]

Sophie you're a master, love how effortlessly you achieve all your creations, however when I try it goes horribly wrong. I am having trouble finding the correct brushes here in the UK do you have the names of the brushes you use?

[@SophiesTipps]

Hi there and thank you for your kind words! My favourite round brushes are from the brand Loew Cornell (the ones with the yellow handle). A great place for face painting supplies in the UK is thefacqepaintingshop.co.uk (you will find a link in the video description). They carry tons of great brushes and I am sure that they would be happy to provide you with assistance if you don't know what to get. However, I just need to point out that - although using quality tools is very important . it isn't what matters most in face painting. The single most important thing is to practice. Just like in most endeavours, it takes time and efforts to achieve good results. I always suggest practicing a bit every day, even if it's only 10 or 15 minutes. Concentrate on one thing each time. For example one day you practice blending colors together, the next you practice your teardrops and so on. Don't forget to take pictures of what you did each time so that you can monitor your progress and get a clear view of what went well and what you need to improve. You will notice some improvement soon, I promise! I would recommend you get a practice board to begin with, here is a video with more info in case you're interested: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fpCqgmebiKuHgaM Good luck and happy painting!

Great video! Can you tell me where I can find the laminated face I can practice on? Or can I make it myself. Thanks !

i am only 12 and i want to do these at events but i cant afford all the colours. :( Great Videos though. Really helps :) !

Face paints can be expensive, that's true, but you don't need to get large color containers. If you start with a small palette of 6 or 12 colors, you can already paint lots and lots of faces and get some good practice. Christmas is coming up so you might want to put that on your wish list 😀

Hi. I was wondering if you planned on making more look videos. fairies, fantacy, flowers, princess, etc. from beginning to end. I see a look but have no where to start. there's an order to putting the makeup on and I always get the order wrong. I do parades with my horses and we are all dressed as fairies - even the horses. I made everything myself. I want my face painting to be just as impressive but can't seem to reach my goals. other videos out there that show looks are way too complicated. I need just simple and easy and over time I can complicate them up myself. thanks

Julie Davis Here is a simple look you could use for a fairy: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHm6gIOljreab6M If you want to simplify it, put less flowers. Add a few stars to make it more "fairy-like" and use lots of glitter. As you will see in the video, the right order is 1) Base colors (thin layer) 2) Glitter (before the colors are dry) 3) Shapes and ornaments (flowers, stars, leaves, teardrops...) 3) Details (dots, teardrops, starbustst...). Hope this helps. Good luck!
