Making Faces for Art

February 4, 2019

Reflections stamp by Rita Barakat for Technique Junkies

Hey, Creatives! This week is all about making faces! When it comes to art I hear over and over again that faces seem to be the hardest thing to draw for you guys. Well, this week we are going to explore different ways to have a beautiful face in your artwork.

Making Faces

Today we have two examples of using a stamp for the making faces. The Reflections stamp is one of several faces I have had made into stamps with Technique Junkies and a great way to get a perfect image for your projects.
Sometimes we get hung up having to do things in a certain way, who says you have to draw it yourself? The beauty of art and mixed media is that you can use any and all the tools you have available.

Check out this beauty Michelle Wells made this little beauty for using
“Reflections” Face Stamp Rita Barakat Collection Technique Junkies 
and Rita Barakat Magical Mysteries Embossing Powder- “Kiss of the Fairy”!
Think out of the box. (Ok yes, I know she’s in a box! LOL) A stamp is an artists vision – but use parts of it, or layer it with other elements to make for an interesting composition. For more on this project visit
Michelle Wells on her blog!

Making faces doesn’t have to be complicated or hard. Tonight we will expand on this on Mixed Media Monday (click on the picture below) so make sure to join me at 8 pm CST! I will also be doing another live this Thursday in our Facebook group Rise and Shine with Rita Barakat!

    Faces are definitely the most difficult, even for the Masters!! I love this face that you created, she is so beautiful. She reminds me of my niece.

In my work I hope you will find encouragement, a little whimsy, something pretty or at least something to make you think. I do believe we need to be thankful and focus on the positive! I am passionate about art and believe that we are all creative in our own ways.
