Frequently asked questions

Facepainting and balloon art is $125/hour* and up for each artist. Note that we use only FDA-compliant cosmetic grade face paints and are insured. Airbrush artists and water-resistant paints (due to the higher cost of airbrush inks and paints) may have a higher rate (generally $150/hour* and up)... but please call for details. *Holiday and October prices are subject to change, based on availability. Please call for a quote.

We accept cash, Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover. If you need to make a deposit by credit/debit card, give us a call and we can handle that over the phone.

Facepainting and party art is not just a hobby for us that brings in extra money on the side... it's our business! That's why we're licensed in the State of Nevada (NV20131162443) and are insured. If your event requires an Additional Insured COI, we can provide that, however there is an additional fee of $10... the processing cost of our insurance company to write up the certificate.

It's simple... with a booking fee, we know that you're serious about our services, and we block out the time (plus our travel) to make your party our priority. The booking fee confirms your reservation.

The deposit is applied against your party total. It is nonrefundable for cancellations within 72 hours, but can be applied to a rescheduled date and time.

Per our Art Services Contract, "Your booking fee ensures that we make no other bookings during the date and time of your event. Due to loss of potential clients by ArtParty4U in the event of a cancellation, the following policies apply: Should you need to reschedule your event, please do so at least 7 days prior and we will make every effort to meet your needs. Fees paid will be applied to future bookings if cancellation is between 3-7 days of event. Should Artist(s) get sick, every effort will be made to find a replacement Artist, but if we are not successful, the booking fee will be refunded. You will be responsible for payment of all rates and fees if cancellation is not made at least 72 hours in advance."

As part of our "ArtParty4U Gives Back" program, we do fundraisers... and generally schedule one per month, providing up to three hours of face painting for free for non-profit organizations. Additional hours are at normal rates, and all time is subject to availability of artists. Due to this limited availability, we may not be able to accommodate on short notice, as non-profit requested dates can fill up months in advance. If a free artist is not available (due to a non-profit event already being booked) other options would include paying our normal rate for artists, and selling tickets to recoup the cost; having a sponsor for our services; or setting up a pay-per-face event, where we wouldn't provide free face painting, but would charge a fee to each person painted. Please give us a call!

Nothing but a positive attitude! We provide all the needed painting supplies like canvas, brushes, paints, and easels! You may want to bring an apron or wear clothing that you wouldn't mind if paint gets on it, and paper towels or baby wipes are a plus (but not required).
