Living Magic Entertainment- face painting, magic, and balloon twisting in the lower mainland

MEET US

We are so blessed. 

Alongside creative careers in the arts, our lives are lit up with joy being at your special events. From birthdays to galas to weddings to baby showers, we feel very grateful to have the opportunity to make children and adults feel like "living magic." Cultivating our talents as face painters, balloon twisters, magicians, storytellers and bringers-of-joy, we love to make your special days that much brighter.

With over a decade of professional entertainment experience and mentorship from many of the worlds most talented face and body artists, Living Magic began in Vancouver in 2013. Here we wanted to create a company dedicated to the creation of wonder and delight for children and adults alike. Living Magic has now become a vibrant addition to Vancouver parties, dedicated to a truly exceptional level of professional entertainment that creates unforgettable special events for you and your loved ones.

There is no greater gift to us than eyes lit up with awe when they see their painted reflection; an event brought to life with balloons, a child convinced they are magic, stories and games that bring laughs. Whatever the occasion, we are here to bring you joy.
​
With well over 1,000 parties and events behind us we do this because we love to give you and those you care about parties to fall in love with. 

Thank you for being a part of Living Magic.

Wishing you love, light & laughter!


Julia, Owner

What are some of your favourite designs to paint?
Any of the full faces with lots of sponge work. I love to see the faces of kids and parents after they have been fully transformed! It's amazing to see how your little one can go from their regular selves to a super hero or fairy in minutes! 
If you were a mythical creature, what would you be?
I like to think I'd be a centaur or faun! I love the outdoors so would feel in my element running through magical forests. 
What is your favourite birthday party food?
Fries. I love potatoes done in any way shape or form. I also love sushi! 
What is your real-life superpower?
Love! I love being kind to my family and friends, and trying to make everyone's day a little bit brighter and their hearts a little lighter. 
When you aren't painting faces and making magic, how do you like to spend your time? 
I have worked as an actor, director, producer, and teacher. Most recently I worked as the managing director at an all-abilities theatre, where I got to work with some fantastic people and used my writing skills to secure grants for ongoing operations. Now, however, I work as a counsellor with individuals, families, and couples! While I'm no longer entertaining at parties myself, I still love interacting with our clients and seeing happy smiling faces through the photos they send us! www.juliasiedlanowska.com
