In short - perfect

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!

True artist talent

The face painter that we had for our event was beyond our expectations. She was very professional yet friendly. The children loved her. Her work was absolutely amazing. Thank you

Not 100% Satisfied

I informed the artist there would be close to 90 children. I hoped it would have been 2 face painters., there was only 1 and not a lot of children were able to get their faces painted.
She did a great job on the faces that she did do.

Thank you for your feedback, and I’m truly sorry to hear that your experience wasn’t everything you had hoped for. I’m glad to know you were happy with the quality of the face painting, and I truly appreciate your kind words.

While I did my best to accommodate as many children as possible—staying beyond the scheduled time a bit to do so—I understand how important it is for every child to have a chance to participate. As a solo artist, I can absolutely bring in additional painters for larger events, but that does need to be arranged in advance. If I had known a second artist was needed, I would have gladly coordinated that and provided an updated quote.

Your feedback is very helpful. Thank you again for having me, and I hope to work with you again under even better circumstances.

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.
