About
I bring children’s imaginations to life with the stroke of a brush, creating fun, high‑quality face paint and makeup designs for parties and special events. As a parent with years of experience working with kids, I know how to make every child feel comfortable, seen, and excited about their look.
I always use nontoxic, top‑quality materials that are gentle on young skin and safe for all-day wear. Because I run my business independently, you’ll get my full attention, from planning the perfect designs to creating a smooth, stress-free experience on the day of your event.
If you’re looking for a friendly, reliable artist who truly connects with children, I’d love to help make your celebration magical.

Cherie was on time and a lovely person. The girls loved their little painted faces. One girl thoroughly enjoyed being a fox. We will love to have her come out again!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing can vary (not much) based on the distance I have to travel.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to get to know the client a little bit via phone to establish a good rapport, but it's not always necessary, as I understand people have really busy lives. Email or text confirmations work well too.
I go to wherever the event is being held, check in and set up. I make sure I have enough supplies for the amount of people who want work done. My designs will be timed by how many people want to get painted, just so I can accommodate everyone. I work quickly but beautifully.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I graduated from Duke Ellington School of the Arts and received the best training in fine arts, then branched off to use those skills for face painting.
