Meet the Instructor

Mandy Paavola is a Canadian face and body painting artist, entrepreneur, and joy maker. She is married, has two teenagers, and shares her home with three cats. Her favorite color is hot pink, and bringing happiness to others is at the heart of everything she does.

Mandy has been running her own business for over 20 years. Art has always played a huge role in her life—she has always painted and created magic with the intention of making people smile. Her business is rooted in joy, and her journey to where she is today has been a fun and winding road.

She graduated from high school in 1998 and went on to earn a bachelor’s degree from the Kootenay School of the Arts in Nelson, BC. While this allowed her to fully focus on art, she discovered that she deeply loved the human connection that makeup artistry provided. In the mid-2000s, she attended the Makeup Certificate Program at Complexions International in Toronto, Ontario, which helped her gain clarity on who she is and what she wanted to do for a living.

Mandy worked hard to build her portfolio and gained experience in the film industry in Vancouver, BC. Life eventually shifted when she had her first and then second child, leading her family to relocate to Northern BC. While continuing to work in makeup, she realized that prioritizing her children was essential, and this naturally led her into face painting. She had always painted—but now her canvas breathes.

There is something truly magical about face painting. Mandy creates core memories for the youngest members of her community. She has built a strong social media following and loves helping and supporting other face painters. She is incredibly passionate about safety and sanitation, making client safety one of her top priorities and a topic she speaks about often.

Mandy loves creating her own rainbow cakes, and if she can add glitter to a design, it brings her extra joy.

Being an entrepreneur is a challenging lifestyle, but Mandy thrives on challenges. She also loves inspiring others and hopes that her story and work can inspire you in some way.
