Here are some examples from edict showing how it is used in particular with colors: ◆　真　　 [しん] truth, reality, genuineness Buddhist sect originating in the thirteenth century ◆　真　　 [ま] just, right, due (east), pure, genuine true ◆　真っ暗 [まっくら] total darkness, shortsightedness pitch dark ◆　真っ黒 [まっくろ] pitch black ◆　真っ青 [まっさお] deep blue ghastly pale ◆　真っ赤 [まっか] deep red flushed (of face) I think the literal translation would be something like “your face is absolutely white” (no passive voice here).

I know "kao" is face, "ga" is our particle, and "shiro" is white, but how does what's left convey "being painted?" Is this phrase actually in the passive voice, as the translation suggests? I couldn't find any words containing "paint" in the dictionary that seem to fit. chotto tetsudatte kudasai.

If, however, you mean Anthropomorpha, the anthropoid apes, then that's 人類猿 (じんるいえん). The individual kanji are (interestingly enough) Human, genus, monkey!
