About
With over 25 years of experience, I bring professional, fun, and safe entertainment to your event through face painting, balloon twisting, clown entertainment, and temporary tattoo artistry. I regularly attend face painting classes and conventions to stay up to date on the latest techniques and products, and I use only makeup-grade, hypoallergenic paints.
I care deeply about safety, which is why I participate in Thumbtack’s background checks for your peace of mind. What I love most about my work is seeing children light up when they look in the mirror and see their favorite character smiling back at them.
If you’re planning a birthday party, school event, or special celebration, I’d be happy to help make it unforgettable.

Sunshine came out to our home for a children’s party. She was very punctual, very polite, and the kids all loved her. Even the parents were commenting on her exceptional talent. She was very flexible anytime a child made a request, and was even willing to paint the faces interested adults :) She was a joy to work with, and we look forward to doing so again in the future.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing depends on travel time, number of children attending, and if you would like balloons and face painting.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
After going over details of party, I will email you a contact. You will review and sign. I ask for a $25.00 deposit which will be taken off total cost. Payment can be made to my PayPal account.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Yes I recently attended the Midwest-Face & Body Conference in November in St.Louis.
