Curious George Face Painting – How to Face Paint a Monkey

Curious George Face Painting Tutorial monkey face painting tutorial step by step

Kids love animal face painting, but not everybody necessarily wants a full faced monkey face paint. When it comes to face painting a monkey face for the kids that don’t want too much face paint on them, I normally paint this cheeky monkey on their forehead.
This monkey is the exact same style as Curious George cartoon character. It is a simple face painting design which when practiced can me face painted on in a minimal amount of time.

The paints I used here are Rich Ivory by TAG, Regular Brown by TAG and a split cake by TAG called Leaf White. I hope you enjoy face painting this Curious George Monkey face painting design which is popular for both girls and boys.
