Megan Raysby

Professional Makeup Artist, Award Winning Balloon Twister

 

Megan is the lead face painter and balloon twister for Dazzle Artists. Growing up she  spent a lot of time in the art room doing everything from jewelry making to 3D modeling, ceramics to mixed media. She has a fine art background from Columbia College, a BA from the University of Illinois- Chicago, and a 200 hour state makeup certification from Makeup First Chicago. 

 

Her face painting began just for fun, and before she knew it, she had regular bookings every week, becoming one of the most highly recommended entertainers in Chicago. Megan loves balloon twisting and has won several awards for her designs. 

​

She leads local practice sessions for other artists during the week and travels the country to conventions to learn, share her work and compete.  She loves entertaining with her face painting and balloon art. She works with a team of talented artists who bring joy to events all across Chicago!
