I have never heard of a formal class for face painting. A friend of mine %26amp; I, years ago just for fun, went to a clown school at our local rec center. We learned how to be a clown, face painting, balloon animals %26amp; silly magic.





I would recommend just finding some great books on face painting or even different make-up tricks because these can come in handy too.


There is a web site that sells supplies for face painting %26amp; videos to learn. It is a company called T. Myers. They do a lot w/ clowning, but once you learn the basics of the whole face painting thing, you can just be adventurous. I work w/ a lady who works at MAC who uses a lot of stencils to do her really awesome looks for herself %26amp; her clients. It is just about being an artist %26amp; doing your own thing. Get some supplies %26amp; just ask people to sit still %26amp; practice on them.
