Just Plain Crazy FaceArt and More.....

Who We Are

Just Plain Crazy Face Art was started by two sisters from Northeastern PA, Marie Sulcoski and Ruth Casey. Between the two of us, we’re mom to 4, aunt to more than a dozen. As such, we have experience dealing with children of all ages. Both of us have volunteered with
church  and other organizations working with children. Having done crafting projects with and for children for years, adding facepainting seemed a logical step.

We are serious about child safety.  Our "paints" are not really paint at all, but are professional quality cosmetics that have skin-safe
ingredients, are hypoallergenic and are easily removed with water and mild soap.
We NEVER use acrylic or latex paints and use only cosmetic grade
glitter.

Over the years, we've expanded and added to our staff...and have been blessed with the opportunity to work with other members of our family and close friends. Our mom, Mrs. G, has often been our cashier and line manager. We couldn't have gotten where we are without her! Marie's younger daughter, Cassy, is one of our awesome face painters, and helps  out on many of our jobs. Her son, Colin, has been our chief temp tattoo artist at many of our festivals. Ruth's son, Paul, and Marie's older daughter, Rae, often filled in at busy events, and recently Aunt Diann and niece Emily have joined our "Crazy Crew"! (As well as many other friends and family who have helped us out through our many years.)  We are so grateful to have all of their support and encouragement as our business grows.

We thank all of our wonderful customers who have recommended us to their friends and families looking for quality entertainment for parties and special events. We include all of you as honorary members in our Just Plain Crazy family, and WE are so glad you've allowed us to be a part of your celebrations in Northeast Pennsylvania for the past 18 + years.
