WOW! Thank you so much! I really appreciate that!!!
I booked Melanie for my daughters Quinceañera on 6/2/24. She was so kind an professional. Her booth was such a hit with everyone. The Caricautures she did were spot on and I loved how how quality the prints were. It was cool how she had a "scan me" qr code so people could add themselves to the wait list without waiting in a long line. I keep getting compliments about her service and I would definitely book her again for another event

About
I am a face painter and caricature/fine artist and I have been doing this for a little over 8 years . I started off as a face painter and was at many events including School events! I Have so much fun face painting I decided to further my artistic party abilities . Now as a caricature artist, face painter, body painter, fine artist, and sip n paint instructor I enjoy going to many different parties and looking forward to a party every weekend lol being a entertainer for parties with my art has allowed me to express myself and meet many different amazing people from all different walks of life!
As an accomplished face painter, caricature artist, body painter, fine artist, and sip and paint instructor, I bring a wealth of creativity and talent to every event I attend. With years of experience under my belt, I have made a significant mark in the world of entertainment, captivating audiences at renowned events such as KidzCon, sponsored by major brands like Nickelodeon, DreamWorks, and Warner Brothers. My experience extends to schools, corporate events, fairs, and conventions, where I consistently deliver high-quality artistic services that impress attendees of all ages.
What sets me apart is my commitment to safety and quality. I use face and body paints that are insured and FDA-approved, ensuring that my guests can fully enjoy their transformations without any concerns. I utilize high-quality colors that not only look stunning but also provide a smooth application, allowing me to create intricate designs that bring characters to life. Whether it’s whimsical designs for children or elaborate themes for adults, my ability to paint any imaginable design truly defines my artistry.
In addition to my face painting and body art, my caricature services are a highlight of what I offer. I create both traditional paper caricatures and engaging digital caricatures, allowing guests to watch their drawings come to life on a monitor. This interactive experience not only entertains the audience but also keeps them engaged while they wait. Each caricature is vibrantly colored and printed on the spot, giving attendees personalized mementos that encapsulate the fun of the event. I can also accommodate multiple subjects, ensuring that families or groups can take home unique pieces tailored to their experience.
To enhance the customer experience further, I employ a modern virtual QR code system. Guests can scan the code to receive real-time updates on their wait status, freeing them to explore the venue and enjoy the festivities without the hassle of standing in line. This thoughtful detail maximizes their enjoyment and adds a tech-savvy aspect to my offerings, appealing to today’s digitally connected clientele.
My versatility doesn’t stop there; as a sip and paint instructor, I bring people together through the joy of painting, fostering a sense of community alongside artistic expression. This unique blend of services ensures that I’m not just providing art but also crafting memorable experiences filled with laughter and creativity. By merging my artistic talents with innovative methods and safety protocols, I deliver an exceptional service that stands out in the realm of event entertainment, making me a highly sought-after artist for any occasion.
