FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My prices vary, depending on the service, day of the week, and time of year. April through June, and again in October are usually the busiest. January through March are usually a bit slower, so I may offer lower rates, weather permitting.. Please contact me with the service you are looking for and the date you are looking for, to get an individual quote.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to discuss what the theme is for the party or event, and how many people will be there. For large groups, I might recommend to do just cheek art to be able to paint more faces, depending on how long I'm asked to be there. For smaller groups I can offer full face painting ,and if there's a birthday girl or boy, I'll paint them first to make their face special. I'm always updating my portfolio to suggest new ideas relating to the theme of the party. This helps especially with young children who are unsure what they might want for their face paint. I also offer hand art and both temporary and glitter tattooes for children who may not want their faces painted.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I'm a professionally trained artist. I attended and graduated from Paier School of Art in Hamden, CT, majoring in Commercial Art and Illustration. I'm currently a muralist by day, and face painter on weekends.
