Steps Followed By A Face Painter Brooklyn When Working

By Jaclyn Hurley


Paint has been used for many years to do different jobs. These have included decorating houses, making paintings and also preparing people for different ceremonies or events. In modern times, children like to have their faces decorated for fun. A face painter brooklyn can be hired to decorate children's faces and add more joy to them.

Gathering all the necessary tools in one place always helps to save time. These come in different shapes, quality and sizes. Each one is used at a different stage of the job to do a specified task. Colors used to paint skin should be approved for such use by the relevant regulatory body.

Different colors can be used to come up with a better looking picture. The alternative to purchasing all the necessary colors is to buy the basic ones and mix them to obtain new ones as desired. This however needs someone with experience. Beginners may end up wasting a lot of time and paint while doing this on a client.

Furniture which should include a chair for the client and the painter, a table to place the paint on and a cabinet to store the tools of work are all necessary. Some of the other important things to have include a hair restraint for girls with long hair, a blower to help dry the paint within a shorter period and a mirror for the clients to see the final picture on their faces.

The customer is first asked to choose the picture that they would like painted on them. These should be in a book or in form of photographs of previous work that has been done by the painter. Small children need to be assisted in making a choice. The painter should have a clear picture in his mind of what he is to produce and the steps that he will follow.

Some customers could be sensitive to contents used in paint manufacture. Their guardians should be asked to confirm that they do not react negatively to these contents. The paint job is better done on a clean skin and so any oily substance that is on the face should be washed away. Things that might interfere with painting such as long hair and earrings can be moved aside or removed.

Lighter colors are applied first. This is because deeper colors appear more vivid when applied on top of lighter ones. The foundation of the painting is done quickly using sponge like material. Small lines of the image are made with small sized brushes. Things such as warts can be added using simple objects like rice.

Hygienic wipes should be used to clean out paint that has ended up on unintended areas when the painting is complete. A gentle blow of air aids in quick drying the paint. It is important to ensure that one layer of color is dry before another wet one is applied. This will prevent undesired mixing which would lead to new colors that would spoil the final image. Clients should be allowed to look at themselves at a mirror so as to approve work done. With their permission, pictures of the work can be taken for record purposes.

Painting faces can be done for fun. For some people it has turned out to be a sustainable career. An cover against losses or injury should be acquired when this work is done professionally.
