Face Painting

Hypoallergenic water-based face painting for all ages.

I love this part of my job. Give me a child, a stool, and ten minutes and I'll send them back to the party as a butterfly, a tiger, or whatever they asked for on the way in. The little ones who were too shy to look at me when they sat down come back twenty minutes later to show me their face in a mirror.

I work with hypoallergenic, water-based paints — the same brands the studios use on real film sets — so they're gentle on sensitive skin and come off with a warm cloth and a bit of soap. I bring my own seat, paints, brushes, sponges, mirror, and disposables for every child. All you need to do is point me at a quiet patch of shade.

I can comfortably paint up to 12 children per hour when I'm doing full-face designs. For shorter line-art pieces I can do more, and for elaborate work I do fewer. We'll plan the count together when you book.

I paint at private parties, school events, corporate family days, festivals, weddings, baby showers — anywhere kids (or grown-ups, frankly) want a bit of magic on their cheeks for the afternoon.
