From animation screens to painted faces
Two young artists are turning their drawing skills into colourful face designs, fresh confidence and a little extra income.
Danish and Farina, Danish from Universiti Teknologi Mara and Farina from the same university, are expanding their animation skills to a novel form of expression – painting smiles on children's faces. While attending their industrial training, the 23-year-old Farina volunteered to try face painting, despite having no prior experience.
The experiment turned into a new creative outlet and a small source of pocket money for her. The 20-year-old Danish from Kolej Vokasional Kluang also discovered he enjoyed face painting, finding it calming and a chance to experiment with new motifs beyond his digital screen. Both students enjoy interacting with children and seeing their reactions to the colourful canvases they create.
Farina particularly enjoys butterfly designs, while Danish prefers floral, animal, and character-inspired motifs. They both believe that face painting allows them to apply their artistic principles in a new setting, confirming that creativity knows no bounds.
