Shay was absolutely amazing! When unexpected weather forced us to delay my daughter’s pool party by three hours, she was incredibly accommodating and adjusted her schedule without hesitation. She even drove over two hours to make sure she was there for us!
Her setup was beautiful, she arrived with such a warm and positive attitude, and her artwork was absolutely stunning. The girls were beyond excited, and every face she painted looked incredible. She truly added something magical to the party and made the day even more special.
If you’re looking for someone who is talented, professional, dependable, and genuinely passionate about what they do, I highly recommend Shay Chenette Arts. I will definitely be booking her again for future events. Thank you for helping make my daughter’s birthday unforgettable! 💕🎨🎉

My work is rooted in body positivity and self-expression. I’m inspired by helping people feel confident in their own skin, whether that’s embracing scars, celebrating pregnant bellies, or simply making a child smile by becoming their favorite character. I love turning people into art and creating moments they can feel.
