Introduction: Hello, I'm Mr. Kevin Killian. And I love what I do! I got my start with balloon twisting over 17 years ago. But at that time, I wasn't doing a whole lot with it. I was basically trying to find an easy way to impress women. (No, it did not work.) My talent kept hidden until my wife, Iris, started her facepainting business several years ago. Many people would ask her if she also did balloon twisting. And she tell them, "No." One day, our oldest daughter bought some twisting balloons at the store. Her plan was to help her mom with her business. As she struggled with some of the designs, I stepped in to show her some basic maneuvers. My wife was in shock that I knew how to do it. I guess I forgot to tell her, and she was already in business for 2 years. She was not happy. Oops! So I started to practice more and join in on her facepainting gigs. And it turns out that I have a knack for it! This is currently my fifth year as a professional balloon artist. And the fun just keeps growing! Contact me. You won't be disappointed. My prices displayed are for private party events. For corporate events, I charge a flat $150 per hour. There is a $25 travel fee if your event is longer than 1 hour away. For events that are more than 2 hours away, the travel fee is $50.

Mr. Lillian’s Animal Balloon Twisting was awesome! They were very accommodating to a lot of kids at our block party. Great with kids, quality work, and punctuality! They even stayed later than planned to ensure all kids had their turn. Highly recommend!

Mr. Killian was amazing. His work is by far the best balloon twisting I have seen. All the parents agreed with me when the saw his balloons. The kids and parents were so happy with him. I would recommend him to anyone.
