Professional Technique-Based Competition
A high-level face painting competition designed exclusively for professional artists, celebrating technical excellence, refined brush control, and imaginative realism.
The Fantasy Realism theme invites competitors to blend believable anatomy and structure with fantastical elements, creating designs that feel immersive, cohesive, and visually powerful while remaining grounded in strong face painting technique.
This category is not about cartoons, costume characters, or theatrical special effects. Instead, it celebrates illusion, depth, and refined painting technique, where fantasy emerges through realism rather than exaggeration.
Licensed, trademarked, or copyrighted characters, designs, or recognisable properties are strictly prohibited.
