Available for Parties, Holidays   &   Events

I will come to you and add to the fun of your party, special occasion, holiday or event by painting faces. We’ll let our imaginations run wild and see what we come up with. My background in the entertainment and beauty industry, has made face painting a natural for me. I am used to working with children and adults alike.

I offer a professional service observing the guidelines set out by Alberta Health Services. Only non-toxic products are used, and sanitation procedures are strictly followed. I have been accustomed to these types of procedures, due to my cosmetology career.

My marketing experience goes back to when I was designing print ads & radio campaigns for my hair salon. Even before that, I designed flyers and business cards and painted sandwich boards for our vintage clothing store business in Vancouver’s Gastown. I found out recently that the new owner is still using the cards designed by me so long ago. My artistic talents paid off.

I have changed with the times, embracing new technology.  How wonderful it would have been to have these tools at my disposal several years back. Regardless of the times, the message remains the same. It comes down to people, and I am an intuitive marketer who can help you to create a presence. I have a proven track record of being on the social web for more than ten years.

And I love the web!

Creating good content is just the beginning. As a creative entrepreneur, I know it can be a challenge to find time to manage all the small details. You will want to make sure your event is well attended and everything comes off smoothly.

For your upcoming event, conference or webinar, why not let me be your extra set of hands? I can help with organizing, promotion & email campaigns. Working from my home office or your place of business, I can liaise with your vendors, sponsors & partners.

A conference or event is a great opportunity to connect and to grow your network. I will design a social media strategy and also manage your social media before, during & after your event. #LiveTweet is a great way to bring it all together, with lasting positive effects for you & your organization.

“The music I choose to play is whatever touches me, what relates to me. I like to play what I enjoy; the audience will surely have a good time.

My start in the entertainment industry began as a keyboard player & vocalist for an all-girl rock band (in the seventies). Several band combinations followed. We played rock, soul, funk and rhythm and blues. I had the support of other women, which allowed me to become familiar with how a band operated and my responsibilities. Touring many parts of Canada, I was so green initially, despite having played for years. It’s still a man’s world, and I doubt I would have survived without the kindness, patience and understanding I received.

I went on to perform solo in piano bars, which were popular then. Piano bars were a wonderfully intimate experience; I would love it if they became popular again. In the beginning, it was scary, being up onstage by myself, but I quickly adapted. Enhancing the dining experience, and enjoying the friendliness of lounges and small clubs, was a boost for me.

Leaning towards jazz on piano was a natural progression from my classical roots to pop; jazz was a mediator for me and suited my voice like the blues did. I enjoy listening to ambient and meditative sounds. Though I am not sure which will come out first, I may explore that for a while, but I look forward to releasing and performing some new songs and have plans for more than one album if the muse is kind.

“A creative spirit with many outlets of expression, Deborah is re-entering the music biz as an indie artist. Deborah is also a visual artist and teaches piano & guitar in Calgary, AB.” ~Deborah Robinson
