There's a Pearl Inside

Look at this Balloon.  Look closely.



Did you see the little Pearl that's Inside the handle?  Just a little extra surprise (for children who are old enough to be given this).  Not too noticeable, but it sure is fun to play with.  Quiet fun.



Balloons ~ whether bopping them around or just holding them ~
a beautiful Feeling.

Face Painting Event

This event was all the way Upstate.  Traveling takes a lot of time, but I don't mind.  Here are photos of a few of the people that I painted there.

My Latest Review

I felt so happy to find this review online.  From last week's client.

I work at a lot of events, so I sincerely appreciate when a client let's me avoid a problem that I can predict ~ In this case, my Client originally requested Face Painting for her Pool Party.  But I knew that the guests would feel conflicted about going into the Pool because it would ruin their Face Paintings.   Client took my advice to order Freehand Glitter Tattoos instead, and it was Very Successful.  Glittery.  Beautiful.  They stay on in the Water.  Usually lasting a week or so.  Oh ~ We all felt very happy:

Fantastic

Face Painting Express owner Alison arrived on time and was very professional, she was very warm and friendly towards the children and adults everyone took to her immediately. We had a pool party and Alison suggested that we do tattoos instead of face painting because the paint would come right off in the water. This was the best idea the tattoos were applied and the children jumped right back in the pool. The tattoos were fantastic I even got one myself as well as few other adults. I highly recommend her and will hire her agian. Keep up the great work Alison!!!!!

Freehand Glitter Tattoos at the Pool Party

Here are some Samples of my Freehand Glitter Tattoos.
I did them for a Pool Party last weekend.
They don't come off in the Water.
They can last a week or more
if you don't rub them.
Wow

Mike Tyson

Mike Tyson's design always goes over well at Face Painting.  Loosens people up to admit that, well, Decorating our Faces is certainly Not Just for Children!

This is a quick rendition I did at a recent Ice Cream Social:

Black and White Face Painting

Look at these.  Mostly just black paint :














Sometimes that's all that's needed.

Butterfly

We face painters paint Butterflies a Lot.  This time, I decided to try a different paintbrush.

Balloon Pearls

I did it!  Determined to figure out why I couldn't count on my #BALLOONPEARLS to hold up, I made a row with a dark pink balloon that I attached to a white balloon.  Even though I #TWIST IN THE SAME DIRECTION, as all Professional Twisters do, some of them came out.  As usual.  But I figured it out on my Very Next Balloon.

I attached a light pink balloon, made the row of #balloon pearls the same way as I did with the dark pink balloon, and I HELD BOTH THE BEGINNING AND THE END OF THE ROW OF PEARLS UNTIL I ATTACHED THEM TO THE WHITE BALLOON  I figured out that that was what I was missing.

Then, what to do with this pink, white, and #pinkballoon.  What is it?  I stuck a heart on top and turned it into a Diva.



Excited with my new #Balloon Pearling Skills, I tried it again just to be sure.  I over-made Lots of #Balloon Pearls onto a #Crown.
