CLIENT FEEDBACK:
Melody came to our Open House dressed as "Luna" the fairy godmother. She did a wonderful job face painting, and accommodated all of our little clients, whether they wanted a simple balloon on their hand, or an elaborate full cat face.
Melody has a very kind and warm personality, and interacted very well with the children. She made them feel comfortable, and made sure that she was doing what they wanted. Her face painting looks very professional and artistic.
Melody went above and beyond to accommodate our requests for the event, and I would highly recommend her to anyone considering her services.

Melody was very professional in her approach to getting to know the subject of her "singing telegram." She was on time, she had prepared everything that she agreed to, and simply delighted my stepson and his family.
I am sorry that she does not live in my area (600 miles away), for I could find clients for her among my friends and family here.
I would highly recommend her for her vocal talents, clown artistry, cartooning--she provided excellent entertainment value!

It was a rainy day and Whoopsy Daisy saved the party by occupying about 25 children for 2 hours. She and Dusty were excellent. We would recommend her highly.

Melody Newcombe made a bright and colorful addition to our party. She and her assistant had great rapport with our guests and delivered what we asked for. They worked hard, made lots of people very happy and were delightful to have at our event. Melody accomodated our desire to have entertainment that was first class but did not overwhelm the other simple pleasures that were offered at the party. She paid attention to what I explained ahead of time and delivered. Every event has a different flavor, and she slipped into just the right character for us.

She and Jack looked professional and acted professional. It was tough to get people's attention--in some cases, staff members flew in from out of town, and thus, had not seen some of their co-workers in several months. Melody therefore accommodated the situation by unobtrusively drawing her caricatures in the background while people talked, then surprised them with their drawings once completed.
Jack's magic tricks were great!
