FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
There is no pre-payment or deposit required. You only will owe me for the time I am there. I charge $80 per hour. I do not typically charge a trip charge. I accept cash, personal check, CashApp or Zelle. Tips are appreciated and accepted, but never expected.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I try to keep things simple for you. I am pretty self-sufficient. Typically, you are trying to plan a whole party and facepainting is just one element. All I need to book the job is name, address and contact information. At the party, I try to arrive 15 minutes early to set up. I have design books. We usually put out all design samples, whether it is all boys, all girls, or both. There are boys who ask for butterflies, and there are girls who ask for dragons! I can do custom designs for a particular themed event. Please discuss with me prior so I can be prepared. The children are free to come and go to enjoy other activities. We encourage them to do so…but many times they all want to watch their friends being painted which is great! I try to set up in an out of the way corner, as getting bumped and jostled is not conductive to face painting. It is nice if you can provide a table and chairs, and a shady spot for me but not required. I can bring a table and chairs if needed, and just need to know ahead of time. Access to a water faucet is nice, to rinse brushes, but I can bring my own water as well. I will discuss this arrangement when you book the party.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been doing face painting at birthday parties, carnivals, fairs, corporate events, sporting events and daycare centers for over a decade. No event is too big or small. So why should you hire me? What makes me different from other face painters? With a lifetime of creative experience and a career as a professional designer, I can assure you that I do quality work.
