Continuing Education for Face Painters? Oh Yeah!

Today I attended an awesome workshop by Jacqueline Rivera Howe.  
She is a talented artist and excellent teacher. She covered basic brush control, brushstrokes and how to enhance designs with glitter.

She demonstrated and had the students (ranging from novice to long time painters) practice, then she displayed the skills she taught in several designs.

It takes dedication to be proficient at anything you want to do. 

Like anything else, you need to learn to improve your skill set.  You can practice at your current level or you can strive for growth. Take opportunities to gain knowledge about technique, design, current products and tools. Face painters need to keep up as products and techniques improve. 


There are conventions for face and body painters held all over the world.  Local workshops are available as well.  Private instruction is another option.  

I like to attend at least one workshop or convention every year to keep up with the cutting edge and newest trends n face and body art.

Another benefit to attending any type of class, workshop, or convention is the networking aspect.  I have the pleasure to meet other artists in my area as well as all over the country and master painters from around the world.
