Overview

Practicing Face Painting for almost a decade, I offer an infinite range of Face Painting options from the seasonal options I bring with me and the custom ideas that clients show me they want. I use high-quality products, wash my tools after every gig, and love what I do.

I have a bachelor's in Illustration and have had formal training in caricature art. I have worked on multiple large and small events. I average 8 minutes a face when drawing. I recommend booking me for an hour for every 8-10 people. When I draw more than one person on one page, my drawing is faster. This timing is based on black and white caricatures; for color, the time increases to about 7-8 people an hour.

Amazing

The families loved it and raved about how great the artist was with the kiddos. I had to copy the card to hand out to them!

What to expect

I can usually handle 20 kids per hour (3 minutes per face) or more, so please understand that if you don't hire me long enough, I won't be able to paint everyone.
I offer a wide range of Face Paint designs from flowers and rainbows with GLITTER to Spider-Man and Ninja Turtles. I'm not opposed to someone showing me a picture of what they want and asking me to improvise; however, be aware that I may turn it down in the interest of time if the custom idea is too time-consuming. I bring a tri-fold poster board with foam faces and sheets filled with all the options I offer, some of which you will see in my posted photos. I bring my own table and chair, but I always appreciate it if a table is provided for me. All of my paints are from Wolfe, Tag, and Mehron, which are all hypoallergenic and don't stain the skin. I also use powders on hot days, so the face paint will not come off with sweat (only with soap and water). I arrive 10-15 minutes early to set up and will stay 10-15 minutes after my allotted time to clean up and thank you for having me.
**If you do not hire me for enough time, I unfortunately will not get to everyone.** However, if you decide you want to hire me longer on the spot, I will charge $65/half hour extra.

I have a bachelor's in Visual Communications with a specialization in Illustration and have had formal training in caricature art. I have worked on multiple large and small events. I average 8 minutes a face when drawing. I recommend booking me for an hour for every 8-10 people. When I draw more than one person on one page, my drawing is faster. This timing is based on black and white caricatures; for color, the time increases to about 7-8 people an hour. I can bring along a second caricature artist if you have a big event and want lots of colored caricatures. I use my own easel made from wood, I use 90lb white artist paper, and Crayola, Pentel, and Pretty Excellent brands.

I have over 10 years of experience in the performing field and work with children and adults of all ages! I would love to be a part of your party

I can always bring another artist with me for Face Painting and Cariacture work if requested. I will be very communicative about any change like this far before the event and answer any questions you have. For any questions or concerns, my email is (email hidden)

About

Hello! I'm Bobo the Face Painter
I have been a Face Painter, Caricature Artist, and Balloon artist for almost 10 years and hold a BFA in Illustration and Fine Arts (So I have formal training). I have worked with clients and families in corporate and private events for over 10 years, and work with kids weekly. I enjoy creating festive, new ways to make my Creative company better and more enjoyable for my audience.
**Note that I am a Face Painter, Caricature Artis,t and Balloon Artist, but I have honed my craft for Face Painting and Caricatures over the years and only do Balloon Art when I am also Face Painting at an event**

Additional booking notes

I would request that I be placed in a place where kids can hear me; being put next to a speaker can make it difficult to hear the kids and vice versa.

When my audience is primarily adults, I ask that I not be next to a speaker, as I need to talk to people as a part of my job. I, of course, am flexible if need be!

Influences and inspiration

Mischief the Clown was my teacher; she has been clowning since 1979 and has taught me face painting and balloon sculpting before I started my own company.

I have formal training from Hudson Valley Community College and Cazenovia College. I have degrees in Fine Arts and Visual Communication with a specialization in Illustration.

Setup requirements

Face Painting: I may need a table depending on the event, but I will communicate in advance with you about that
