I am often asked to paint peacocks and this design if one of a few "go to" designs. Is is relatively simple and very popular! Follow along with Ulianka to create this stunning peacock face paint design!
Peacock Face Paint Design Tutorial:
Step 1:
Using a 5/8 inch brush and an purple/blue/yellow colours(yellow becomes bright green next to a blue colour) paint a head, neck and a wing under the eye. With pink/orange/yellow colours mark five lines. All pointing to the middle of your pupil.
Step 2:
With a 5/8 inch brush and pink/orange/yellow colours, go around the lines to paint feathers. With a mix of green and yellow I painted in green dots and pulled thin lines along the middle.
Step 3:
With a thin brush, add white details for the area around the eye, bluedecorations to the head and wing. I also use blue and dark red for painting in details around each feather. For finer details I use a liner brush.
Step 4:
Paint in the eye. Outline with black. Add some black swirls inside of each feather.
Step 5:
Outline the entire shape with white to make the design stand out even more. Add swirls and some chunky biodegradable glitter!
