Twister 'n Sparkles

We are a boutique entertainment company located on Manhattan's Tony Upper West Side. We offer one-of-a-kind balloon twisting, face painting, princess parties, DJ (with full light show and lasers), slit walking, and more. Our team is young, talented, and fun! We use only the highest quality materials to produce a superior result. We use only Diamond FX, Kryloan, and Wolfe Bros. face paint in basic, metallic, and day-glo colors, as well as arty brush rainbow cakes. Our balloon colors tend to be more exotic, and go way beyond the normal and basic red, green, etc. We have neons, pastels, metallic, and pearls. We have worked all over NY and NJ doing balloon twisting and face painting. We love to make all kinds of balloon creations, including crazy hats, princess wands, Spiderman, Elmo, and The Little Mermaid parodies, 'Chubby Puppies' (dogs made with larger balloons so they can't fit in a mouth for the under 2 set), T-Rex, bear on a tree, etc. We also offer glitter tattoos using over 24 different colors of glitter (including Sparkle Jewel tones, as well as Satin Pearl tones). We are a great team that can work within your budget. We have extensive experience with both children and adults, private, and corporate events. Past 2009-2010 clients have included: - F.I.T. (Fashion Institute of Technology) - The New York Yankees Luxury Suites - A.B.T. (American Ballet Theatre) - Cynthia Rowley - The Newark Bears (official twisters of the entire 2009 season) - Citibank - The Children's Aid Society - The Bronx County Courthouse Christmas Party Sparkles studied illustration and fine arts at the School of Visual Arts in NYC, as well as attended the Fashion Institute of Technology also in NYC for jewelry and accessory design. Twister, in addition to his love of balloons, has played piano since he was 5, concentrating on jazz, blues, funk, and classical. He also attended the Hunter School for Music at Hunter College in NYC for piano.
