Butterflies have been one of the most requested face painting designs since the beginning of face painting. The butterfly design has evolved from a cheek art, to a breathtaking design that can be remixed a million ways. I have been collecting butterfly faces for years and my goal is to keep on adding to this blog for years to come. So that if you are ever in a butterfly slump this can be your go to eye candy.
