She was so professional, ahead of schedule, and accommodating. The kids (and adults) enjoyed her art!
Best face painter ! We have had Transmorification Station at numerous parties and we will continue to do so! So incredibly patient with little ones ! All the ideas are fun and so creative !
Krista paid such attention to detail giving every kid exactly what they wanted. She went above and beyond for each one of them. I couldn't give her enough recommendation. Well worth it.
Krista was awesome painter. I’ll recommend her to friends and family. I will have her again in the future. Thank you, Krista!!!
Everyone loved their face paint! Eesch one so unique and such a talented artist!
We can not say enough great things about the talent, entertainment, and art this added to our community Halloween event. Adults and children were in love with their face paintings and her work is efficient, top notch, and amazing to watch! Can't wait for next year to hire again :)
Great experience! Krista showed up early.. set up quickly & was ready before the event even started! She did full face paint for about 15 kids flawlessly! They all looked great! You can tell she really takes her time with each child ! Everyone complimented on how amazing each child looked!
Great experience all around! Would definitely recommend her to anyone!
I booked this vendor for a work event (with an unknown head count even up to the day of!).
She showed up ready to roll with whatever the day presented and she sure didn’t disappoint! Once her station was setup it was funny to see the adults line up (disclaimer: no kids were harmed with the excitement 😂).
From glitter butterflies to super heroes and even custom requests, it was one satisfied customer after the next!
I highly recommend this vendor for your next party!
What a fun day and thanks to Krista she made it even more amazing. She will be our face painter from now on :-)! Five stars!
Krista was so great to work with! I had to change the time of the party a week before and called her right up and she was able to accommodate us. The kids (and parents) LOVED the amazing artwork she did and the cool tattoos she gave them. Highly highly recommend !!!!
Did an excellent job for our event! Would definitely use in the future
Krista is an amazingly talented face painter (and artist). All of the kids in our family loved her creations. Highly recommend her for your event 5⭐️
Krista did a wonderful job at my child's birthday party. The kids loved it! Thank you.
Above and beyond our expectations! Work is movie worthy, every child felt so special after their experience! Prompt, kind, and professional! HIGHLY
RECOMMEND !!!
Krista was amazing and the kids loved her!
Response from Transmogrification Station:
Thankyou again for having me!!
We hired her for a 5k/fun run to paint kids' faces! Very sweet person and excellent work!
Response from Transmogrification Station:
Thanks so much for having me!
She is hands down the coolest/best face painter ever. Her set up and take down process was super fast, the kids absolutely loved her and all her designs (new and old), she is so friendly and super patient for kids of all ages (especially the squiggly ones!) we can’t wait to invite her back for many years to come! Keep rocking at what you are doing your amazing!
Response from Transmogrification Station:
Oh gosh thanks so much for the kind review!! I had an awesome time at your daughter’s birthday! The kids were all so good and creative with wanting out of the box designs. The pig roast was soooo good that you sent me home with as well! Thanks again for having me.
Krista showed up early to get herself set up and be ready when the kids got there. She brought boards with pictures of her art and was ready to tackle any ideas the kids had. It was a blacklight skating party and she came prepared with UV reactive paints!!! The kids praised her artwork and loved how it glowed under the lights! We will definitely be booking her again in the future!
We are thrilled with the service provided by Transmogrification Station! Despite rain and wind, she had a beautiful station set up to accommodate our guests. Her artwork was beautiful and also tailored to our festivities. The kids loved the outcomes! Would highly recommend!
She had an emergency and needed to cancel day of. It would have been great if she had showed up, or at least looked for a replacement, and it was very disappointing that she couldn't show up. She did refund my money, as well as tried to offer a discount for future events, but after this, I have no use for a face painter. Overall, annoying and disappointing experience.
Quick , affordable and made all the kids happy. All and all excellent experience for my daughters birthday! Thank you.
Krista was very great with the kids, and efficient getting them painted up.
Response from Transmogrification Station:
Thanks so much for having me again! It was a pleasure working for you and the kids!

I am looking to broaden my skills into more bodypainting and various fantastical photoshoots. I have been slowly inching my way into the sfx industry with having taken some classes with Eric Lusk for a local haunt in Pa, Reaper's Revenge back in 2015.
I also consider myself a jack of trades artist having done tattoo design, murals, window painting, watercolor, sketching, chalk art, paintings on custom shoes and bags, sewing, crafting, etc.
Always looking to try something new and exciting when it comes to my creative capabilities!
