I am a professional artist and entertainer, with many years training and experience. I carry public liability insurance, use only cosmetic-quality, skin-safe products, and comply with BC's strict P.S.E. guidelines regarding health & hygiene. As such, I charge for my professional time.
I am ALWAYS early, set up and ready to paint when you want me, but will also always finish on time, unless overtime is agreed in advance.
My 2012 rates are as follows:
RATES FAQ Do you offer discounts for charity events? Yes, I do. If you are hosting a fundraising event for a registered charity, I offer a special rate of $65 per hour - a discount of $20 per hour! Some fundraisers also like set out a donation bucket next to my stand, asking a nominal amount ‘per face’ from their clients, which helps them raise funds. Do you offer other discounts? If you book me for multiple days face painting or body painting, I may be open to negotiating a discount. Ask at the time of booking. I do NOT discount for bookings of 1 day or less. I am also open to the idea of barter or trade for goods and services of an equal value. Try me! Do you accept credit cards? Sorry, not yet...However, I will happily accept either cash or check. Paint on People Face & Body Arts is a registered business with the Resort Municipality of Whistler, and I will always provide you with receipts. Do you take US Dollars? Sorry, no. I live and work in Canada, and only accept funds in Canadian currency. Do you have gift vouchers? Yes, I do! If you want to give the gift of entertainment, please email me with the amount you’d like to spend, and I will provide a personalized gift card for you. I recommend giving a voucher for 2 hours of services, whether that’s Face Painting, Body Painting or Glitter Tattoos.
Do you do one-off paintings for individuals? Yes, I do. Depending on what exactly it is you want, expect to pay $20 for a one-off face paint or glitter tattoo, providing you can come to me. If you want me to come to you, the usual hourly rates apply. Of course, in the summer months, I offer 1-off paintings at Whistler's Farmer's Market in the Upper Village every Sunday, 10am-4pm, from only $5...what a bargain!
