Cat Face Painting

The whiskers are the hardest part of this face painting, because if you botch them, they are difficult to fix. If you don't have a steady hand, opt for a pair of short whiskers. If you are confident, try longer ones. To make whiskers, make three little dots on each side of the upper lip area. Place the tip of your brush on a dot and sweep out to the cheek. Try to put an arch into the whiskers for a more natural look.

To finish up, add some more fur to the face, following the hair pattern that you created before. This time, use a darker color to add accent hairs. If you didn't use white before to make your hairs, add some white in now. Trace around the nose in a light or very dark color to give it definition.
