Simple Face Painting Ideas

Without formal training, it is still possible to create simple face painting ideas that are also eye-catching and beautiful. In my opinion, cheek art is the best way to accomplish simple face painting.

One of the biggest benefits of developing simple face painting designs (or cheek art) is saving time. In a fraction of the time, you can paint a small design or character on a child’s cheek or arm and generate the same kind of “wow” that you would if you, as a complete beginner, spent ten minutes painting an elaborate full face design.

Professional face painters who have tons of paints and tools would disagree that cheek art is the most economical face painting idea in terms of time. But for a one-time event where you may not want to spend hundreds of dollars in supplies, a few cheek art designs is the way to go.

Versatility is a big advantage with simple face painting. These small designs can be adapted and painted on the face/cheek, neck, shoulder, legs and arms. A simple snake looks fantastic slithering up the arm. A rose or other flower looks beautiful on the shoulder.
