Hey Thanks for the question ... My answer is Yes, probably. The skin is delicate and dont try and stain it too much, or you could damage it, especially with lots of ink. Try and avoid permanent marker on skin!! --- P.S. If you DO get a permanent marker stain on your skin, you can get it off with a product called Amodex Ink and Stain Remover. Its best use is for stains on clothing (because those stains are much tougher), but it easily takes marker or other stains off skin. It's also non-toxic.
There are a lot of different skin colors.... Yellow ochre and alizarine crimson make one, or burnt siena and white. For darker skin colors, add burnt umber. It's best to make swatches, and hold them to your subject's face. also very helpful: a green earth underpainting. A skin color painted over that becomes lively by the contrast.
