Boston Face Painter philosophy
This Boston Face Painter's philosophy is that the art of face painting begins with design. She starts with the customer's request, be it Butterfly or Batman, along with the color and style - like pretty, scary, bloody or sparkly. Then she applies her beautiful brush skills, guided by a detailed understanding of facial structure, color combinations and designer’s vision. She focuses on helping the customer to express their own "art" in the final work.

[This artist] squeezed us in at the last minute, on a day that was already busy for her, and she was amazing. All the adults were in shock at her facepainting–the kids looked like they were wearing printed masks; she is incredibly talented. We got a few balloons made as well, and those were darling and very popular! I’m pretty sure every parent at the party took a card–we really couldn’t get over how great the painting was! Thanks again and I know we will see you soon! – Kate Flaim
I found her business card posted at one of the local cambridge parks and i am so happy she was available for my daughter’s 4th birthday party! The Ninja Turtle faces were a big hit! But my favorite was my little birthday girl and her rainbow design! [She] was very flexible with her time, she did not rush and she was very quick to return emails prior to the party! The kids and parents loved her! Absolutely talented! – Vicki Clark Mantia
