Hi, my name is Karina. I have been
a face painter for quite a while
and enjoy working with the human canvas
and today we're going to
create a wonderful butterfly on Madison.
For your basic supplies, you will need
small, medium, and large brushes,
a high-density foam makeup sponge,
a basin to rinse your brushes with water,
and a towel, and of course, an FDA-approved
cosmetic-grade face paint, and glitter.
Our first step will be to apply the
outline of the wings. Start at the bridge
of the nose and, depending on the shape of
the face, the shape of the, uh, upper wing
will be around the eye, and the lower wing
will be shaped around the cheekbone.
I'm picking colors today that match
her outfit, which is always nice to do.
And today we'll add a little bit of a
swallow-like tail on the wing.
Uh, so we have out outline,
our Step #2 will be to fill in the colors.
I'm actually going finishing taking
the outline and drag that color inward.
Uh, it's always nice to have colors that
contrast and compliment. There aren't
really any colors that don't work together
but not all colors blend together, so it's
good to let the areas dry unless you're
absolutely blending. So, on the bottom
wing, I do want to add a second color
which I do want to blend, so I need to do
that as the first application of color is
wet. The outline is already a little bit
dry, so I'll dip my brush back into the
water. And just keep going over and over
it as you pull the colors into each other.
Step 3 will be to add the black outline
to the wings, the head, the body, and
the antenna. Do that with a #4 brush and
black paint. So we've completely outlined
the wings and we'll move on to the head
which we'll put in between the wings.
Many different ways to do the head and
the body. The body that I generally like
to make is a bit of a diamond.
We can stop at this basic butterfly;
we have a beautiful example.
Uh, if you choose to do more options,
we will continue and do some more.
So we're gonna add the eyelashes
to the little lady
and then we're going to put
more details on the wings themselves.
Pull the edges inwards, we're gonna take
the separation that we created and
round off the edges.
So we're gonna add
a little bit of color. She's got a
little bit of green in her outfit.
A teardrop-shape here.
Its nice to apply dry glitter to wet paint
so that it actually stays on better.
A little more detail, we can add
some more dots.
With the butterfly, you can also add lips,
every girl likes their lips made up.
So we will add some lipstick. Pull down
the lip slightly and just do "tap tap."
Additional accents would be the highlights
with the white.
As you can see, it just really
punches it out nicely.
We've completed our lovely butterfly.
Are you ready to fly away?
Yes.
