Welcome to Once Upon A Face Designs! My name is Sandra Cassidy and I've been painting faces
for myself (Halloween is my favorite holiday) and for my children for years. In 2007, I decided to broaden my horizons
and face paint at a local festival in order to raise money for the CT Down Syndrome Congress (http://ctdownsyndrome.org). I was a hit and the rest, as they say, is history! Since then, I've recruited my middle
daughter Delaney (pictured on the rate/services page) and with a little practice, she too is a natural.
In a concerted effort to educate ourselves in the art of facepainting, we attended the 2008 and 2010 Manchester,
CT Face Painting Convention and I attended both the 2008 On the Road in NJ SillyFarm Convention and the 2009 Manchester, CT
Face Painting Convention. At these conventions, we attend workshops taught by nationally renowned face painters
such as Mark Reid, Pashur, Gary Cole, Roberta Mandella, Marcella Murad "Mama Clown", Heather from SillyFarm, Kerry
Ann Smith and many more!
We use only hypoallergenic, FDA approved
products that are specifically made for the skin. Check out our photo gallery and lose yourself in the magic of a full
face design. Adults and kids alike will be amazed at how quickly they transform. Most faces take 3-5 minutes.
