Masterclass 6 with Simona Strete-Rad
One Stoke Mastery
The goal is to remove confusion around one stroke and build a solid foundation that allows you to confidently approach any design that uses this technique, whether it’s delicate, bold, or crazy fast.
et’s understand one stroke in a way that actually works for us as face painters. Instead of painting random strokes and hoping they give the result we want, we will organise strokes into clear categories that make it easier to know what to do, how to do it, and when to use them in a design.
You will constantly alternate between explanation and hands-on application. As each stroke category is introduced, we immediately use it in demonstrations and painted designs, so you can see exactly how those strokes behave in real situations. We will work through simple strokes first and gradually move into more complex ones, practicing them in isolation before introducing them into designs.
Along the way, we will explore roses, butterflies, high-impact designs that rely on speed, and practical one-stroke tricks (ghost technique included). We’ll also look closely at how brush choice affects the result and how to use different brushes to achieve cleaner, softer, or sharper strokes, depending on what you need.
You will leave with clarity on one stroke and an understanding of the small details that are often overlooked but make a huge difference.
