Cheeky Moo Face Painting
"Jen was terrific. Very easy to deal with, reliable, efficient, friendly ... I could go on and on. And she is exceptionally talented - after all the kids at our daughter Jasmine's party had had their faces painted, the adults starting going up as well!
Two things stood out for me: she works exceptionally hard, not stopping for a break even for two minutes while there were people queuing for her (and ignoring the food I had brought her!). She was also very thoughtful, taking the trouble to find out what my daughter liked beforehand so that she could come prepared to paint her; she even gave us a complimentary balloon sculpture of a princess that Jasmine adored. She was punctual, entirely self-sufficient and very reasonably priced. Basically, she exceeded all my expectations (and I thought she was going to be good).
Don't hesitate - hire her! The kids will absolutely love it."
Caricatures by kathy
"Kathy was absolutely WONDERFUL and the most popular station at my event. She was fun, professional, and drew AMAZING caricatures for all of my guests. Everyone was raving about their experience with Kathy and it gave all my guests a unique favor to remember the event. I would highly recommend booking Kathy at your next event, she was the highlight of the day!"

"We were lucky to find Jennifer for our sons 5th birthday party. Lots of people commented that she was the most talented face painter they have ever seen. Great communication before the event and arrived on time, with a little extra balloon surprise for the birthday boy. Was happy to accommodate all our needs. Would highly recommend."
Caricatures by kathy
"Caricatures by Kathy was a big hit at our sons first birthday party! She did all of our guests within an hour!! Talk about talent this was around 25 people. Loved the drawings and the sweet keepsake we now get to have.
One of the guests even texted me that they framed theirs when they got home. Highly recommend if you want a keepsake to remember your special event."
