About
Hi My name is Melanie. I was born in The Philippines and lived in Japan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, beautiful Hawaii, I traveled Europe during high school and now living in our sunshine state of Florida.
My passion in art led me to doing face painting. From volunteering at military base Youth Center to helping a friend to having my own business. To me face painting is another great form of art that I can share with you and your children. I love the reactions I get when I finally get to show it in the mirror and the kids imagination of playing the characters is just amazing. My happiness doesn't end there because I know I've done my job. And it also motivate me more to push further to better myself.

She was wonderful! I had her come for my daughters 6th birthday party and she painted about 15 kids faces in under 60 minutes! And my daughter being the diva she is decided to change her entire face after everyone was done and she did that as well! Not to mention the quality of her art and how wonderful the kids looked! It was the buzz of the party and we had a bounce house! I definitely recommend Melanie for any party or occasion if you want rather quick and quality fun!

Melanie was amazing at my kid’s birthday party! She puts a lot of detail into the facepaints, her work is very neat and she can paint pretty much anything you show her. Above it all, she is also very friendly, easy to work with and great with kids! I highly recommend her, thanks Melanie for adding value to my son’s birthday 💕

Melanie was extremely accommodating and her skills were fantastic! We went from having 15 confirmed kids a couple days prior to the party to 40 kids the day of the party!! She just rolled with it and painted all their faces. I highly recommend Mealanie!

Melanie was great!!! Literally, almost everyone at our family reunion got their facespainted. She was very flexible with the scheduling...despite our back and forth of me continuously changing the arrival time due to the severe weather we were experiencing. Everyone loved her designs! We will definitely be contracting her again for future events.
