Super easy to work with. Kids were all great with her and the face painting was exactly what the kids wanted which was great. All sorts of different themes were available. Extremely reliable so it’s great to know once booked you don’t need to worry about it!

What to expect
We provide quality face painting that will wow your guests. We use many techniques that allows us to paint fast and efficiently. We can paint 12-15 faces an hour. You can customize what designs you’d like at your event. For example if you have a large event but want to hire only one artist for a short amount of time, then quick and fun designs would be suitable. We can also design special face paints according to the theme of your event!
About
My name is Shanequa. I have a degree in art and design. I’ve started my own bakery and now I started my own face painting business. I first started face painting, voluntarily at my church’s events in 2012 and I have loved face painting ever since. I then became a face painter and henna artist at the Philadelphia Zoo.
