Nikki was incredible! Not only is her art amazing, her bright and bubbly personality brought extra fun and sparkle to the party. I will now require facepainting for all of my parties just because I need to hire her again. 10000/10 recommend!

Nikki was amazing! Hired her for my nieces 4th birthday party. She is truly a talented artist and the kids loved her. She free handed the most amazing face art for such a reasonable price. I watched every parent at the party grab her business card on the way out and I see her being at all of our future parties while the kids are young enough for facepainting. Thanks Nikki!
