Generally we will need a 5' by 5' space to work in. We provide our own tall makeup chairs and small table. We will also provide a menu of popular face painting designs. For large scale events where speed is of the utmost importance, we may require the use of two chairs.
Do you have insurance?

Yes, we use only FDA-approved, non-toxic, hypoallergenic paints and glitters. But sometimes things happen, which is why have insurance to give you peace of mind that your valuable health and property are covered in case of an accident.

Travel Fees

Travel fees apply when the event is more than 30 miles from Cheyenne, WY. The mileage charge will be $0.66/mile
Who can get painted?

To reduce the risk of disease spread, we will not paint anyone who, in the opinion of the painter, appears to be suffering from skin complaints (cold sores, conjunctivitis, poison oak, eczema, open cuts etc.). In some cases we will offer to paint an arm or hand as an alternative. We are unable to paint anyone suffering from cold/flu symptoms. Hay fever sufferers are advised to have a design on the cheek or hand.

About

My name is Sandie Whitman

I was lucky enough to meet the incredible balloon twister, Alpacaglobo when she moved in next door and she convinced me to give face painting a try. I did and it changed the rest of my life. During a break to spend more time with family, I discovered traditional oil painting. Now as a full time professional artist I get to come back to face painting, my first love, and bring with me all my new found knowledge to play in the world of make believe again! Making the dreams of children come true is a thrill that just can't be quite compare to anything else. If you would like to see my other art, just check the links here.
