Kaliq was great. He exceeded our expectations. The kids enjoyed watching him and everyone loved their hats, t shirts, and hoodies!

Kaliq and his assistant were great. We had them at our son's bar mitzvah and the kids loved the t-shirts! Colors and designs were amazing, and he even painted a special one for our son in honor of the world cup. Thanks so much!

Kaliq is very talented, kind, and accommodating. The kids loved their custom shirts! They are one of kind art.
Airbrush Artist

Kaliq and his team were AWESOME! They arrived early, set up quickly, and started right away. Our company is approximately 150 people, and everyone who wanted a shirt got one! Even when they ran out of particular sizes, Kaliq offered to finish them at his studio and bring them back to us - AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE! The shirts look awesome, no two were the same. I'm already making my case to management to bring them back next year. Highly recommended!

Our staff of 40+ colleagues, including little kids, LOVED the airbrush tee shirts. Everyone got one and are still talking about the experience. Several little kids were reported by parents to have slept in their tee shirts. KaliQ even did our logo on a few tee shirts that we'll send to our board members. KaliQ and staff had a system going -- sign up for your shirt, pick a design/size, KaliQ designed the art, airbrush art work dried -- done!

Kaliq customs went above and beyond. He did some custom shoes prior to my daughter's party and they turned out so good that I knew the party would be amamzing. Everyone loved their shirt or hat and the party was one of the best we have had!
Airbrush Artist, Backdrops & Drapery, Children’s Party Entertainment

Kaliq worked really fast to get all the orders, was great with the kids and very patient with the adults. I'm not easy to please and I was very pleased with his services. Highly recommend him for your event.

First spotted Kaliq's work at an event for military kids. I loved his art and saw how happy it made the children. I decided to hire him to do trucker hats at my daughter's Shopkins birthday. He was the hit of the party! All the parents commented about how amazing his artistry was and it really added a bright personalized touch to the event! Will hopefully have Kaliq join us for future gatherings!

Found Kaliq online for my daughter's Bat Mitzvah. I wanted white squishy pillows painted. I got one pillow as a trial and Kaliq had no problem meeting me to get the pillow. He was easy to work with, very responsive and did an OUTSTANDING job at my party! Painted pillows were awesome! Dogs, skates, unicorns were the slightly out of the ordinary requests. He handled those requests as easily and beautifully as more standard sport themes. By the end of the evening, my guests were pulling up photos on their phones and he was painting one-of-a-kind portraits of pets, logos and mascots! Incredible! Genuinely nice person to have at your event and wonderfully talented!

Our son wanted to have airbrushed sweatshirts as part of his Bar Mitzvah celebrations. Kaliq's crew were the hit of the party.

Kaliq Customs was absolutely the best part of my son's bar mitzvah party. Kaliq did an incredible job dealing with the kids and also making the kids t shirts look super cool. He designed a logo after talking w/ my teen that was beyond amazing, plus he designed our escort cards and they were super cool. I would recommend him to anyone planning an event in a heartbeat.

About
My name is KaliQ and I'm a graduate of the Maryland Institute College of Art, with a degree in Animation and I'm the owner of Kaliq Customs. Art is my passion and I work with individuals that use their artistic abilities to entertain guests with caricatures, face painting, arts & crafts and custom one of a kind art! Airbrushing began for me in 2000 but my experience with art dates back to when I was drawing on the bedroom walls with crayons! In addition I'm a graphic designer, painter and craftsman. I view airbrushing as a performance that allows me to bring excitement and wonder to people of all ages.
Having my team at your next event will have a lasting effect on your guests. Were creative, polite, accommodating, organized and treat our guests the way we wish to be treated. I take pride in making the parents and planners jobs easy by simplifying the price and process of designing multiple items for large corporate events and small private parties. The price of your airbrush package depends on the number of guest that will receive a favor. Prices for parties of 30 guests or more start at $13 per person.

Our setup and personality is smooth and simple...After All It's a PARTY!
Additional Booking Notes

Our environment MUST have good lighting in order for us to give you the level of service we wish to provide.
If you know the dance floor and dining hall light will be dim moving the airbrush setup to a another room or section is often the answer. But we get jealous when we can't hear the music!

Breathing Room
Please allow 6 - 10 ft. of space between us and food stations, buffets and dessert.
Is Airbrush Safe?
Yes! Airbrush art utilizes a controlled device to spray non-toxic paint on multiple surfaces without splattering anything on furniture and the surrounding guests! Accidents can occur but were insured and take precaution by using drop-clothes and table clothes to protect the surrounding area.
To be respectful of your guests we briefly stop production for prayers, speeches, video montages & the Horah. (We dance during the Horah!)
