Jillian Malan - Face Painter
Me and my youngest, Leo, at 7 mos old.
It was the last week of kindergarten for my oldest child, Nick, and on a spur of the moment, I offered to paint the entire kindergarten class on the last day of school. I'd never painted faces before. Ever. I bought paints on a Wednesday, practiced on my friend's kids on Thursday, and painted the entire kindergarten class and daycare on Friday - seeing the smiles on the kid's faces, I was HOOKED! That was in 2012 and since then I've painted at festivals, church events, birthday parties, and schools!
As a wife and a mother to three kids, I don't get much free time these days, but when I do I enjoy volunteering in my church's Mom's Group, cooking, crocheting, gardening, and being a Girl Scout Co-Leader. I'm also an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant in private practice (Nurturing Naturally, LLC) and travel throughout the Northern Oakland and Southern Genesee areas supporting breastfeeding mothers.
