Please come out for some fun Trunk or Treating at the Steven A. Cohen Military Family Clinic at Hope for the Warriors! Friday Oct. 25th.
This may be the only Trunk or Treat that we'll be Face Painting for this year, as I also work at this clinic Mon-Thurs evenings and I won't be able to attend any other Trunk or Treats on those weeknights. SO this is a Special One, near and dear to my heart!! The Face painting will be Free!! 🧡🖤🎨🍬🍭👻🎃

Come find us this Saturday from 2-6pm at the Global Soldier Festival in front of Jacksonville Commons Recreation Center.
This event is for the General Public and ALL Branches of the Military to attend!
Rain or Shine the event will go on. Fingers crossed for Sunshine!! 🤞🤞🤞

**UPDATE** We will NOT be at the Humphrey Farm Peach Fest tonight. We arrived to set up, and another facepainter was already there. It seems that both of us were allowed to sign up, even though it's usually only 1 type of business per event.
It would not have been fair to Amy with Party Poppers entertainment (since she was already set up) if there were 2 facepainters at this event, so we opted not to stay.
Ya'll should still stop by her tent... she also does balloon art, as well as facepaint and glitter tattoos!!

We are ready to paint all the Ninja turtles tonight!

Class time! I've been working on improving my line work and my nemesis, the Rose. 😂
I have struggled for years to paint a pretty rose, and I think she's finally blossoming.⚘️

Sharing from one of my favorite face painters that I follow, Squishy Doodle. She says it way better than I ever could!
What you see vs. what you don't see 👀👁👁👀
I'm reminded of this post after getting a customer call at 9:20pm tonight, asking if I could paint for a party tomorrow. 🥳 I wish I could, but that's kinda a little late and a little last minute. And because facepainting is usually* a weekend prime time activity only, I do have another job during the weekdays.
Mama has to pay the bills and feed the boys! 🤣 Do you know how much a teenage boy and college kid man child eat when home from school in the summer?! EVERY.THING.

Reposting because ’tis the season of people asking professional face painters to paint for free at their events…just because. Don’t get me wrong, we tend to donate our time to causes that are near to our heart as often as we can but PLEASE keep in mind that this is our actual job and how we support ourselves and families. I know people don’t mean anything by it most of the time, but There’s always someone who is Almost offended that a professional face painter would not want to take them up on their generous offer to add live art entertainment to their events and not pay them, discount their rates, or even just plain not be able to accept payments or even tips. Here are just a few things to keep in mind before asking a professional to work for free. All said with love and light and I hope it reads that way.
1) This job…is a job. Especially in this economy, people deserve to be paid for their services🙂
2) Time is precious. In this line of work especially, weekends are really the only time we have to make any income. There’s not a lot going on during the week for face painters. So while asking for us to work for free for 3 hours on a Saturday seems like nothing to you, that’s a huge chunk of prime time for us to take on paying jobs.
3) ESPECIALLY if YOU are reaching out to a face painter and especially x2 if you have had multiple people recommend said painter, please do not hit them with the old “working this event for free will be great exposure for your business” people still say this to me even though I have worked so hard for years and built a pretty decent following. I don’t need exposure, I need to go grocery shopping lol!
4) We deserve to be valued for our work. Period! Again, I know that people don’t mean it this way but why out of every booth at a whole event would only the face painter be expected to work for free? We work our booties off!
5) When you take it seriously and do things correctly, this line of work is EXPENSIVE. There is a reason we charge. The insurance, the taxes, the quaity supplies, every bit of overhead that comes with being self employed.
Please do not undervalue or even devalue face painters, artists, or self employed people in general. We are trying to make it too and it would frankly be impossible if we were expected to take on every request like this we get. And again, we donate time when we can to worthy causes but please don’t expect an automatic yes and be sassy when your request is declined❤️

Our bubble braids are for all ages. Mom wanted in on the fun without getting her face painted, so she opted for a pretty Blue Ombre bubble braid. 🤍🩵💙

When a new event is in your phone but not yet on your 2024 Planner... it accidentally gets missed on the Upcoming Events post.
Now the Global Soldier Festival on Sept 14th gets its own post!! It will be held at the Jacksonville Commons Rec center, from 2-6pm, and is open for the general public and all branches of the military to attend.
This event is normally held in Fayetteville but has made its way to us this year.

Things have been pretty busy for me lately, and I have been slacking on posting photos, but I'm going to try and be more consistent. 🙃
So here are a few pics from the Pacific Arts festival that we attended the last weekend of June.

This little cutie chose a mermaid mask and then let me get creative instead of doing the exact same as the photo. 🥰
I absolutely L.O.V.E. this remake of the original design.
