Use a small pry bar to lift the crown moulding away from the wall just a bit...paint it...then thump it back down using a hammer on a cloth covered block.

I just finished painting some stuff at work and i used painters tape to make straight lines..worked pretty well..try not to push the paint to hard around the side where the tape is to prevent it from bleeding.
