Why choose us for your next event or party?

Snapdragon Face Painting was established, and is currently run, by a practicing freelance visual artist who has formally trained at two of London's most prestigious arts institutions, Goldsmiths College and the University of the Arts, London. Combined with a wealth of experience in both the entertainment and creative industries, this means that to satisfy our creative vision, only the most fantastic professional face painters and make-up artists in central and greater London are chosen to represent Snapdragon Face Painting at your event. Our artists are reliable, presentable, highly experienced and very personable.

The very process of being face painted is incredibly exciting for children and it is tempting to think that children don't notice the level of artistic skill in a face painter. However, at every event we are booked to face paint for, it's consistently proven that children very often have the keenest eye for a great design. It's official, they love having their face painted by the best artists!

Having a special ability to face paint to such a high standard is one thing but what makes us so different is that every single design is created with as much originality and individuality as the face it will be painted onto. With our face painters at your event, your guests are not limited to choosing tigers, butterflies or superheroes... we love listening to new and exciting ideas and will always relish the challenge of an unusual request!

Can you afford to book a face painter for your event who may only know how to paint a handful of average designs?

Our artists have developed styles of painting which can only be achieved through years of frequent experience and natural artistic skill. Moreover, our combined experience within the creative industries means that we have the confidence follow imagination, not trends.

For the majority of face painters, their first creative impulses are pursued through face painting at school fetes or on their own children. Our artists have developed other artistic careers and this shows in the versatility of their talents.

As such, we find that our face painting is always the most popular activity at events and so you can be sure that our capable artists will work efficiently at very busy events. Only artists with a special ability to work decisively, imaginatively and with confidence can deliver a brilliant piece of work whilst completing each design within the short period of time allocated to each face.

Our skilled face painters maintain a safe and hygienic practice and a sensitivity to the individual, whether that might be a three year old child who is sitting down for the very first time to have their face painted or an adult being made-up for a fancy dress party to look just like Cleopatra.
