Artist Calgary – Face Painting

My name is Abeer Merali and my journey into the world of face painting began as a delightful pastime, just me and my three adorable children , exploring the wonders of colors together.
Soon enough, I found myself volunteering at their school, adding a touch of magic to various events.
And let me tell you, ever since 2015, I’ve had the pleasure of painting the faces of countless children in the Calgary Area.
Face painting it’s not just a hobby for me; it’s a passion that fills my heart with joy. I’ve even attended workshops and dedicate myself to honing my skills every single day.
