Years ago I published a face painting book by number. I did not involve big, whole face pictures. These were designed to put on a child's cheek. I could not find a paint I found suitable enough to market. Years later, a company came out with books in kits with their own face paint. This morning, on Pinterest, I found a recipe to make your own paint.
Mix in a baby food jar:
1 tsp cornstarch or baby powder
1/2 tsp cold cream
1/2 tso water
Add: food coloring one drop at a time.
This recipe comes by: kleenexmum.com.au
I scanned the handdrawn pages into Photoshop and saved them as 4" x 6" jpegs. You may cut and paste them and even resize them to print by placing them into your word program. I had sold them in toy stores in my area. But, life and children took over my life, and I stopped marketing them. My daughter helped me set up this blog and told me about Pinterest. I LOVE these two sites. Now, I can finally share this idea with others. My architect husband explained about copying all my graphics onto a Photoshop standard size 4" x 6" page. This has made bringing them into the blog SO MUCH EASIER. I can cut and paste them to put them where I want them now. I have three pages below. I haven't changed the others. I'll update page when I have time.
