Quick butterfly face paint easy step by step tutorial using one stroke technique Ever wanted to face paint a quick easy butterfly using one stroke technique and absolutely no sponging? In this face painting class I show you just how. All you need is a 3/4 inch flat angled brush and a split cake of your choice. In this face painting class, I’m using a split cake that I have custom made, you can learn how to make your own split cakes here As a thumb of rule, I like to paint on 2 loops above the eyebrow, one in between the eyebrow and eye, and 2 below the eye. If you have extra time, you can outline the edging of the butterfly wings using thick black strokes then adding dot clusters on top to create some contrast. I have added a jewel to add some bling and step it up a notch, this is optional.
