October is my favorite month of the year by far! Fall is officially here, the air is crisp and cool, the leaves are changing, and the smell of Autumn is in the air! In just a few short weeks it will be Halloween, the kids will dress up as ghosts and goblins, or perhaps princesses and fairies! Planning the Halloween party of the year? Hire a face painter to complete your guests costumes!

“We
recently hired Jessica for face-painting at a wedding reception. I asked for
glitzy, mardi gras type painting. She did an outstanding job and I would highly
recommend her. She exceeded my expectations and was
equally popular with guys and girls.l“
– Susan, PA
“Dan Wild was excellent.
We have hired him several years in a row for our event and people come because
they know he will be there. We will definitely be calling again next year!
” – Jennifer, IL.

more.”

How did you get
into the entertainment business? I picked up a summer job doing caricatures at
my local theme park (Busch Gardens, Tampa, FL) and fell in love with the art
form. Live caricature work has allowed me to further my skills and push the art
form to new levels.
What’s your favorite type of event? Ones where guests
are ready to have a few laughs, weather it be at themselves or
others.
What’s your most memorable event? The best was at a wedding where
everyone there were either family or very close friends and everyone seemed to
have a great seance of humor about not only themselves but encouraged more
exaggeration and funnier drawings. All night I seemed to play messenger of the
family fun filled insults.
