"Maria is outstanding. Her talents in facepainting is as good as it gets. Seriously, it wasn't just good, the girls looked truly spectacular. All the girls look like professional princesses. Every parent was amazed when they came to pick up their girl. And her Snow white assistant was a huge hit with at the princess party. Everything was spectacular in every way. Thank you Maria, we will be passing your name on to all the parents. "

"We hired Maria for our daughters first birthday party this weekend. One word "AMAZING". I have been to many parties but she by far has been the best face painter I have seen. I still have parents calling me this morning saying what an amazing job she did. Maria you were absolutely wonderful! We will defntly be using for our future parties!
Thanks again!

"I have to tell everyone that might hire Maria...she was without a doubt the BEST! Each child that she painted looked like they were ready for a Broadway show! And she was so kind, so patient, so EVERYTHING!!! I had inflatable waterslides, a magician, and a $100 per head caterer for my party, and the only thing people are talking about is "that face painter!" I recommend her without qualification or reservation! (And I actually had a party with Maria, this is NOT one of those entries that is just meant to build her up!) Contact me at robert.g.quinn@wellsfargo.com if you need a recommendation! I would be happy to discuss! Thanks Maria! See you next year!"

"Maria is a TRUE artist! The faces she painted were absolutely beautiful and spectacular. She was fast and very good with little kids (4-6 yr old). Very responsible in terms of following up after you book her.
Her son, Nick, was the balloon maker. His balloon pieces were complicated and interesting. He was awesome with the kids because he was so accommodating with his equipment and balloons. All the moms at my party loved him because he did not yell at the kids for touching his things =). He was so sweet and gentle with them. Very very polite too.
Thanks so much!!!
Peggy...Olivia did not want to wash her face!"

"Maria was a HUGE hit at my son's 1st birthday party. Everyone at the party was in awe at how good she is, to the point that a week later they are still talking about it! She was very professinal and was able to work with a very active group of kids! She kept her cool even when they were all over her trying to get her attention. I look forward to booking her for future parties, and so are my friends who absolutely loved her! Thanks Maria!"

"I was totally happy with Maria and her amazing talent and artistry. The children were thrilled with the beautiful art created on their faces. The parents were happy and the children felt very special and beautiful. Maria's face painting goes beyond the expected. It is magical, colorful and spectacular. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a facepainting artist. She is also quite creative with the balloons. Maria will bring any children's party to life. She is a true artist. "

"Maria was great! I had a 50th birthday party so all my guests were adults. Everyone had a great time with picking and receiving their tattoos whether they were glitter, stenciled or free hand. Maria is a warm, friendly individual who will add to your party's ambiance. I had such great feedback from my guests. They really enjoyed their tatoos. The glitter type can stay on for almost a week even with showering! Enjoy Maria's services, she's really a pro..

"We hired Maria for our daughter's 8th safari themed birthday party. Maria was very responsive to my questions and followup prior to the party. She arrived early to set up and brought safari type faces to go with our theme. Her work is spectacular and the kids had such a great time getting their faces and arms painted. In fact, we couldn't peel some of the kids away from her table because they loved watching her. Maria was very patient with all of them and accommodated kids from age 1 to 12. She even lightly sang while she painted (she's a music teacher). I highly recommend Maria and hope you get the opportunity to have her at your party! "

"I was very pleased with the great service. I can't say enough good things about Maria. She helped to make my sons first birthday party a success. She was extremely well mannered and friendly. My guest loved her. Her artistic skills were excellent and she was eager to satisfy each child at the party. I did refer her to other parents because they saw how wonderful she was. She fit in great with the adults and the children, and she was very appropriate and sincere at all times. 100% satisfaction on my end.

Everyone there commented on how it and people were asking for her business cards. She was very professional, but also was able to engage the children in a fun, warm way."

"I cannot describe in simple words the creativity and beauty of Maria's face painting. The little girls looked like they had come out of a fairy tale. They looked beautiful and they felt like princesses. I recommend Maria very highly. If you have her at your party you will definitely not be disappointed. She will be the highlight of the party. I have the most amazing pictures of the girls' faces. Maria is truly a gifted artist. "

"Maria was super professional and yet amazingly gentle with the kids. All kids loved her and she was undoubtedly the star attraction of our party. She was very quick and efficient and the facepainting designs were very cute and the kids loved the balloons she tied for them. My daughter refused to let me wash her butterfly painted face after the party :)
I would definitely recommend Maria for facepainting and balloon tying."

"We were thrilled with Maria! She arrived early, and was very accomodating. Our party was in a local playground, and she worked for 2 hours in the sun: the first 1.5 hours was face (and arm) painting, and balloon twisting for the last half hour. Our guests could not stop commenting on how talented Maria was, and how impressive her work was. We would definitely use her again- in fact my nearly 7 year old daughter is now requesting facepainting at her next birthday party. "

"Maria did a fantastic job at my daughters 10th birthday party. She was not at all affected by 15 screaming 10 year olds and did beautiful work, both facepainting and tatoos, the girls were thrilled. She was very calm and worked quickly so that everyone had a chance to be painted. She also did facepainting for my 5 year old boys that looked like they could have performed in a Broadway show the work was so good. One of our guests commented that their daughter looked as if she could be performing in the Chinese Peking Opera. I would highly recommend Maria for any party!!"

"Maria & her son arrived promptly & were set up very quickly. As soon as our first guest had their face painted, there was a line that formed. Each guest had a request to outdo the last "customer" & Maria endeavored to accommodate each request, including drawing up new designs outside her book of choices. We had guests from 1 to 70 who were adorned with the vibrant paints, glitters, & jewels, & everyone was so delighted with the work, that we had to extend the time just to get everyone in line completed. We are very happy with the face painting & balloon twisting services, & many of our guests have asked for details of having Maria & her son at their next event!"

"Maria is in a league of her own when it comes to her craft. She was prompt, organized, pleasant, kid friendly and her work was the best we've ever seen. All the faces she painted were breathtaking works of art with whimsical details only a true artist would know how to deliver. To say we are ecstatic would be an understatement and we would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone considering her for an event. "

"We were so happy to have Maria at my 6 year old daughter's backyard birthday party! Maria is very talented and can create beautiful and very dramatic transformations very quickly for the children! Maria is an artist and is very professional -- she worked very hard to get through all of the requests at our party. The children were thrilled with their faces. The face painting was fun for the person being painted and was also very entertaining for other children that were watching Maria at work! I highly recommend Maria and look forward to having her at our next party!"

"Maria was great! I was unprepared when she arrived. I completely forgot to ask the staff at the resteraunt to set up a table for her but she took care of everything. She brought her son as well to make balloons for the kids who were waiting to get their face painted and was well worth it! She was a pleasure and was just great! I look forward to using her in the future and highly recommend her!"

"Maria was very friendly and accommodating to my guests. The children and adult alike were very excited to get their face and/or arms painted. At church the following day, one of the children still had some of his paint on and was crying because he had to clean some of it off. He refused to let his mother clean the rest. I am very pleased with the services that Maria offered and I would be more than delighted to recommend her services to others. Thanx Maria, my husband and I are pleased that you were able to provide your services at our son's 1st b-day party. "
