We had Diego do facepainting at my granddaughters 5th birthday party. His work is absolutely amazing!!! Everyone at the party kept complimenting his work and saying how fantastic the kids’ faces looked. He also painted a few adults’ too. Diego does excellent work and I would recommend him to anyone who needs facepainting services and I will definitely use him again. Thank you, Diego, for being a part of my granddaughter’s 5th birthday celebration and for helping make it so special and such a success!

Diego was a hit at our daughter’s bat mitzvah last night! He arrived on time, was communicative, and did great work. There was a line to get his drawing the entire night. Would highly recommend!

Diego is a great person to work with. His communication approach is top notch. He arrived early and so quick to do the facepainting for more than 20 kids in a short time. His designs and outcome were great! He used quality tools and was very professional. No doubt that we would book him again for our next event.
