About Face Art by Petra

I love creating a little bit of magic at every party and event I attend. Seeing the excitement on children’s faces when they choose their favourite design is what makes face painting so special for me.

And it’s not just the children who join the fun — at many parties, I find the adults happily joining the queue too!

I offer professional face painting for a wide range of occasions, including children’s birthday parties,adults birthday celebrations, weddings, corporate events, community events, festivals and family gatherings...

Whether you’re looking for colourful, fun designs for little ones or something a little more special for adults, I bring creativity, enthusiasm and plenty of smiles to every event.

Safety and Hygiene:

Safety and hygiene are very important to me as a professional face painter. I take every precaution to ensure that face painting is a fun, safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.

I use only high-quality, professional face paints from reputable UK face-painting suppliers, with products that comply with EU and FDA (Food and Drug Administration) standards. Any glitter I use is cosmetic-grade and suitable for use on the skin.

I am fully insured and maintain high standards of hygiene at every event.

Your safety and peace of mind are just as important to me as creating beautiful designs — so you can relax and enjoy the fun!

Let’s add a touch of colour, creativity and magic to your special occasion!

Our Story

Hello, my name is Petra.

I started face painting when my children were little, as I was looking for something that would allow me to work around my family. I studied business before and I worked as a scheduling assistant in a busy office, but eventually I had to leave my job due to my health.

My first experience with face painting was at my son’s 5th birthday party, where I painted his face and those of his friends. I loved every minute of it — and from that little party, things simply snowballed! That’s when face painting became much more than just a hobby— I completely fell in love with it and it lead me to creating my business.

I have always loved art, drawing and anything creative, and I enjoy drawing and painting in my spare time. My particular speciality is portraits, which has helped me develop a strong eye for detail and an appreciation for creating something personal and unique.

What started as a way to fit work around my children has grown into something I genuinely love. I feel incredibly lucky to be able to combine my creativity with making people smile and creating a little bit of magic at every event I attend.

Typical Clients

My clients are people who want to make their event a little more special.

Often, they are parents planning a birthday party who want to see their children’s faces light up when they become their favourite animal, superhero, fairy or character for the day. They may also be couples planning a wedding, companies organising family events, or community and festival organisers looking for creative entertainment that both children and adults can enjoy.

My typical client values creativity, quality, safety and professionalism. They are looking for more than just face paint — they want a friendly, reliable service that helps create happy memories and adds a touch of magic to their event.

I particularly love working with clients who appreciate creativity, professionalism and organised settings.
