Having fun with Jane Davenport's new making faces art supplies!


I am having such a blast with Jane's new art supplies! As a former makeup artist, I really dig this line so much because it is inspired by makeup! How cool is that?!

Jane and her team have really done a FAB job with this collection and I thought I'd sure a cute face and how I used one of the mermaid brushes to quickly create a face shape.

I am so loving Jane Davenport's new Making Faces collection of art supplies!
All the supplies can be found at Jane's website
or at your local Michaels store. Look for the end cap with the lovely black packaging.

Christmas time is such a special time of year! I love creating work and imagery based on this beautiful holiday. Such a visual feast for the eyes. There is so much to explore and so much inspiration. The colors. The sparkle. The magic that surrounds us.

FAQ: 
If I'm wanting to learn to paint faces, is this a good place to start? If you have never painted faces and want to focus on that, I would start with Draw and Paint a girl. Then you'll be ready for this class.
How long will I have access to the course? Lifetime access. Videos are downloadable
Do I need all the supplies on the supply list? No, I am all about using what you have on hand using similar materials and paint colors. My absolute must have color of paint is Quin. nickel azo gold by golden and Luminous opera by Holbein
Will there be a Facebook group? If we get over 60 students then we will have a FB group (so be sure and spread the word!)
