What Face Should I Paint?

I am always amazed at the love children have for spiderman, batman, butterflys, flowers, dogs and cats.  We ask the kids what they would like, and recommend a whole host of options.....but the standard picks are tried and true!!

I LOVE One Year Old and Toddler Birthday parties!

The Entertainment Industry

     So how does an entertainment company provide its entertainers?  Just like any other industry, it employs individuals to perform work tasks associated with its product.  Many of the entertainment companies have what they call "Contract Laborers".  They are individuals hired for a certain period of time, or for a certain task.  These individuals are free to work for whomever they wish (generally speaking) and are paid on an hourly basis.  They will frequently be contracted by the hosting company in consecutive events and become part of the group of individuals that work continually together.   There are some people who are on the permanent payrolls and are thereby salaried employees.

    In the face painting industry, it is the same.  Many of the painters work for each other.  So if a company touts "We have the best face painters" or "balloon artists" or "clowns",  more than likely it is the same entertainers who work for everyone else.

   You may be rest assured, that those I work with are wonderful people! Talented people! Each person is dedicated to their art of entertainment - whatever field it is in....whether it be in face painting, balloon art, or clowning.  When magicians are recommended, they are carefully picked to ensure pleasurable and memorable entertainment.

For the Safe Kids Fair, the people who worked together were (in order of the picture):

     Emily - Owner, "Face Painting Illusions & Balloon Art, LLC" (person taking the picture), Ariane, Dianna, Valerie, Joan, Paula, Marci (shown in video below).

     

   We so appreciate their skill in bringing fun and happiness to kids and adults alike!

For the purposes of this site, 99% of the pictures that are shown were painted by me.  Pictures taken for the Safe Kids Fair were shown on KOSY 106.5 site for their contest.

This company is fantastic. I have seen them everywhere! They have been at Cornbelly Maze, Breakfast With Santa, Days of 47 Float Preview Parade, and now they were sponsored by KOSY 106.5 for the Safe Kids Fair. They are great!

Emily and the gals at Face Painting Illusions joined KOSY 106.5 at the Zero Fatalities Safe Kids Fair in February. There were over 34,000 people in attendance and the KOSY 106.5/Face Painting Illsuions booth officially had the longest line in Safe Kids Fair history (12 years)! They were by far and away the busiest attraction and their work speaks volumes! I would reccommend them to anyone for any occasion. They're the best. You can see hundreds of photos of kid's who had their faces painted by Face Painting Illusions, on our website ay www.kosy.com.

KOSY 106.5 loves Face Painting Illusions!

Twilight DVD Release!!!!

Twilight! 

Victoria - the evil vampire, came to visit Utah on Friday for the release of the DVD at midnight. Did you miss the action? See it "live", below, in the video as I captured the event.   We were the premier Face Painting Company for the biggest party ever! What a night.

I can't tell you how many vampires we painted this night.  So suffice it to say, enjoy the "blood" from this little one as it oozes from her mouth (she only wanted blood and a white face).......Boy this could be really bad, couldn't it?  Only a child a vampire mother would love  :D

Bite me!! Go Team Edward!  Maybe Team Jacob?!

Here she is!  Isn't this exciting?

'Til we meet again.....Don't let me frighten you~
