a Team Of professional face painters in tennessee

Emily, the owner of Making Faces Face Painting, started face painting in 2006 after the art sparked her interest while assisting with a community event. Her unique “artsy” background and talent soon turned this interaction with children (and adults) into one of her passions.

Now Emily and her talented team of artists have painted thousands of faces ranging from 2 weeks old to 99 years old all across Tennessee!

Schools, restaurants, churches, local businesses, theatrical productions, and more have experienced the fantastic artwork Making Faces Face Painting provides. Every face is a work of art! The team specializes in custom faces at lightning speed.

Making Faces Face Painting is fully insured and is the preferred face painting team of the Tennessee Smokies.

frequently asked questions

How far in advance should we book?

It’s not uncommon for Making Faces to be booked up weeks in advance, so we encourage you to secure your date early.

How long does it take you to paint one face?

The time it takes to paint a face all depends on the design. Some designs are super fast, while others may take more time for detail; however, the average time is 3 minutes. Making Faces can paint approximately 20 faces per hour!

Can you have face painting at a pool party?

Yes, you can! Making Faces has water-proof paint designed for water events. Please be sure to request this as special painting supplies are needed and additional fee may apply.

Do you only paint children’s faces?

We will paint all ages that want to be painted. We’ve painted faces that range from 2 weeks to 99 years old!

Do you need to have table and chairs provided?

We will bring everything needed to paint at your party. We can accommodate and set up in just about any space (including outside).

How long will the face paint last?

The theatrical face paint generally stays on as long as you want it to (and it doesn’t get wet). When you’re ready, face paint can easily be removed with soap and water, make-up remover or a baby wipe.
