Q: How did you get started as a face painter?

A: Jamie began facepainting in Anaheim at the Disneyland Resort in 2004. After she started booking private parties as a facepainter, she launched her own face painting company.  Since then, Jamie has cultivated a unique team of highly-skilled artists and entertainers in Los Angeles and California, including the best face painters for parties, who you can book here.

Q: Do you offer body painting as well as facepainting?

A: Yes! Jamie’s craft eventually expanded beyond facepainting to fine-art full body paintings. Jamie has bodypainted at numerous art  and fashion shows, as well as bodypainting for film and photo shoots. Jamie has traveled internationally to music festivals for face and body painting.

 

Q: Where have you traveled as a facepainter / bodypainter?

A: In the summer of 2011, Jamie traveled to Kyrgyzstan, where she volunteered facepainting hundreds of students in rural areas and organized the project "Painting Kyrgyzstan," in collaboration with the Peace Corps. Jamie facepainted local children in Piste Pueblo, Chichen Itza, Mexico in 2012, along with festival attendees. Jamie also participated in the Envision Festival in Costa Rica as the official children's face-painter. She has also painted at the Burning Man festival, for Breast Cancer Awareness Fundraisers in Sun Valley, Idaho, and in Las Vegas, Nevada.

 

Q:Have you taught art?

A: Jamie loves teaching and sharing art! Before launching her facepainting and body art career, Jamie worked as a children's art instructor at a fine art studio called KidsArt. While studying illustration at Cal State Fullerton, she began facepainting at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, which changed her life and career forever. 

 

Q: How long have you been an artist?

Q: Why do you recommend including artistic party services at events? 

A: To give your guests awesome memories and also to help them enjoy the party. We repeatedly observe people opening up and having an easier time connecting with each other after spending time engaging with an artist. People enjoy events more after being face painted and posing in the photo booth, or engaging with the emcee and dancing, or getting a balloon creature or a henna tattoo. If you want to stir up your guests’ happy-meters beyond expectation, book Paint On Your Face to entertain at your next event!

A: Yes, absolutely! We’ve noticed that facepainting has a visible impact at parties. Our facepainters create real art for people, which often truly surprises them, and we see a shift in the recipient from thinking “this is silly” to “WOW, this is a gift!”  Many party planners have witnessed the benefits of adding facepainting to their events—it’s a natural gateway to opening people up so they really enjoy themselves. We love this effect and love our jobs!
