ABOUT FANTASY FACES
Welcome to Fantasy Faces, where YOU become the work of art!
Salutations, I'm Chrissy the owner and lead artist of Fantasy Faces. I'm here to create magic at your event! Making masterpieces are only part of the experience I provide. What is most important are bringing big smiles to the little kiddos there. My goal is to whisk them away to a new land full of imagination!
UNICORN FACE PAINT PARTIES!
We start by picking our "new face" and persona then lastly a fun fantasy name to pull it all together! For that day she is transformed into "sparkles the magical unicorn in charge of all fairies and light! They rule the land of waterfalls!" this is a real experince a group of little girls had at my magical unicorn party! they are crowned and "knighted" by my special crystal fairy wand to be their chosen character for that day. she and her group of friends now all adorn matching, yet different unicorn face paints. That's the kind of experience I want to bring!
I've been face painting for 14 years, Prior to that I created other works of art on canvas for clients. I have been painting with oils and acrylics for over 20 years.
I've sold several works of art, although I love canvas I would much rather paint on people. canvas's don't smile back when i'm finished. I absolutely adore children because of their imagination, creativity and whimsy, since I myself am the same way.
I not only create beautiful works of art on your little ones but I actually engage them! I want their input so that we can collaborate together. for in that moment your child is an imaginative artist. I love to make up stories as I paint on them helping your little one create their own legendary adventure, whether it be a woodland fairy or a swashbuckling pirate on a crusade! We develop fun names together and decide what land their from, where their going and what magical power they have. Not only am I an artist but I'm also a theater/performer geek. I was in several plays as a kid and competed in many singing competitions, so the love for theatrics is ingrained in me.
I love everything from fantasy, fairies, butterflies and glitter, to zombies, day of the dead and monsters. I can paint anything from a full face mask to a small cheek design. If you have a party theme I will create one of a kind designs for your guests to choose from that will complement your theme. I offer face painting, airbrushing, blacklight and glitter tattoos. My art is for all ages. Take a look at the Gallery to see some of my work. I hope to book with you soon and make your party something to remember!
