Introduction: I'm an artist and this quality shows in my face painting. Creating custom designs to fit your event theme is my specialty. 16 years of experience is what makes my painting fast and fabulous. To make your party even more fantastic I offer balloon twisting fun! Ask me about children's portraits on canvas, they make great keepsakes. Check out my website. facepaintingbykaren.com I have the most awesome job! When I go to work it's always a party! The kids have a blast, they get so excited. Adults join the fun too. I have painted many many adults, and it is so much fun watching them be a kid again.

Karen was great! She came to our twins 3rd birthday and everyone had a ball. The paintings were excellent and balloons were a hit. I would definitely recommend Karen to others.

Karen was awesome!!! She was available for a last minute Halloween party for 75 people. She arrived on time with a huge supply of paints and balloons. The kids loved her and the face painting was amazing!! We will definitely invite Karen back to future events!
