FAQs
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I usually correspond with a potential customer via email or phone to discuss details regarding their event and exactly what they are looking for in designs/themes. I'll also send my contract to review and if they are still interested in obtaining my services we can discuss the required deposit. I am willing to communicate by phone, text or email. Whatever form of communication they are most comfortable with.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Art Education degree and I have taught in the Special Education field. I own/operate an Etsy shop under the name "KathiSilvia". I have always been creative with one medium or another, but face painting is my newest love!
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I'm a member of a local breast cancer awareness organization and offer to do the face painting at fundraising events. My friend knew someone who had a face painter cancel last minute and she told them that I could fill in! Everyone at the event was very happy with the results and that's how it all began!
