Our Story

Awarded 3rd place - 2019 Face Painter of the Year by FACE: The International Face Painting Association! ALL OF THE PHOTOS POSTED HERE, ON MY WEBSITE, AND ON MY INSTAGRAM FEED ARE OF MY WORK OR THAT OF ARTISTS WORKING AS PART OF MY TEAM. I've been a professional body artist since September of 2003, and in 2017, I became one of ONLY SEVEN New Jersey face painters certified by FACE: The International Face Painting Association, one of just twenty in the entirety of North America! Why FACE? Because I want you to know I've made the commitment to ensure that you're getting a true professional when you hire me.

Each member of FACE has had to pass a stringent accreditation test, consisting of a detailed written application and a practical test of core face painting skills, in order to be accepted as a member. They have to ensure their work meets the benchmark set by the association, and commit to continued learning and striving to improve those skills. They must also maintain high levels of health and hygiene to protect the faces they paint. All members are insured, and use only products which have been approved for use on face and bodies. With an art background dating back to classes when I was just five years old, throughout grade school, high school, and college, I just can't get enough. My very first job when I was just 14 was at a high-end baby furniture store, where I was paid to custom paint designs on furniture, baby bottles, and gifts. Finally, I took up the art of face painting, temporary tattoos, and henna on the mobile, three-dimensional canvas that is you! Speaking of continuing education, I've taken, and continue to take, monthly classes through my guild, as well as seminars in New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut. I've also traveled multiple times to Connecticut and Louisiana for body art conventions. In this way, I can keep adding new products, techniques, and styles to my repertoire... and to your enjoyment of the art!

My years of experience mean you get quality art in less time! When not using my "fast faces" list, and taking any creative request, I can paint 15 people per hour. That means your guests have more time to spend enjoying other activities at your event! Bigger guest list? Let's discuss more time, more artists, or my "fast faces" list, which has 44 designs including 22 full faces! I also offer canvas painting parties for children and adults - with paintings customized to YOUR event! And balloon twisting - my husband is part of the business too, and is my awesome balloon twister. You may have seen us working at the Tribeca Film Festival, where I've been the official face painter and henna artist since 2009, the US Open, Taste of Battery Park City, Taste of Ramsey, your neighbor's parties, any of a number of town days, street fairs or festivals, charity runs and walks, or even my work in official Snazaroo tutorials! 2019 international Face Painter of the Year - 3rd Place * 2019 international Showcase Face Competition - 3rd Place * Winner, Yorkshire Face Paints Competition - May 2019 * Certified by FACE: The International Face Painting Association * Published in Mingle Magazine: Summer 2019 * Featured in The Record * Featured in The Daily Voice * Featured by BBI Insurance
