About
Tots party? Let's paint faces and get silly!
Tween girl's party? Glitter tattoos and jewelry making sounds fun.
Halloween season? Let me help your costume make a scream!
The absolute best part about my job is watching my paint transform a client. I love taking a step out of reality for a moment of pretend time. Become "The Hulk" or a princess or any animal of the jungle for a day. It makes playtime that much more extravagant for kids and adults alike!

Nita from the beginning she was very responsive and professional. On the day of the even she was there on time and what really impressed me was her quality of work and her cleanliness. She made sure her brushes were clean and she would clean them in between paintings. Before she would start facepainting another kids she made sure to clean her brushes! The kids loved her designs and she was very patient with them. I would definitely recommend her for your party or other event .
