for those full face painters
I just got into face painting and I like the full face designs a lot better because they are more impressive but less detailed, which is good for me since I'm not the world's greatest draw-er. Last night I went to the park down the road from my house and did free face painting (I know, I know, I shouldn't have done it free if I ever want to go back to the park and busk) because I really need to practice and I wanted to hear what people asked for and stuff. So there's a group of kids and the nine year old girl (the oldest) steps up first. She asks for a puppy. Okay, no problem. Start to paint white full face. Then she asks, "Wait, is this the whole face?" I tell her it is, because "it's more fun to be a dog than just have a picture of a dog" and she backed out. Then I had a line of younger kids who would've been fine with the full face stuff, but after the older girl said no, they all asked for little cheek designs. Has this ever happened to you, how do you handle it? Thanks for any opinions.
