Over the years, I have hired several face-painters for the many events I have been involved in. I would rate Kristy as one of the best I have seen. What makes her stand out is…
1) She never stops smiling, setting a happy tone and upbeat atmosphere for everyone… young and old.
a. Her voice is calm and fun and reassuring especially for the little ones
2) Her table, brushes, sponges and paint pods are “clean”… everything is sanitized, organized.
a. Her attire was perfect for the audience and fun.
3) Her art (talent) is outstanding and bright and colorful… and quick which kept the line moving.
a. She allows the kids to pick out the colors they want, if they ask
b. If the child changes their mind in mid-stroke, Kristy will start over, no issues
4) She arrived early and set up, and was ready to start, on time.
a. She stayed later than contracted because the kids kept coming, and were excited.
b. She cleaned up and left no mess behind of any kind.
For me, she checked off all the boxes you want in a face-painter, making her a good partner serving our audience.

Cristy's airbrush tattoo work was so much fun for kids and adults at our annual Holiday Christmas Party! Wow, the kids had so much fun, the airbrush tattoos looked awesome, she was so friendly and helpful all the way through the event. We are so appreciative to have had you at our annual Christmas party for our hotel staff! Way to go and we would recommend Cristy and re-book without hesitation.
