A Welcome Medium For Party Entertainment
Nothing invites excitement like the vibrant colors of balloons. For centuries vendors, party planners, magicians, clowns and dedicated balloon twisters have known the secret to a successful event is supplying something that creates not only interest but excitement to the eye. Visually nothing fits the bill better than balloons.
As a Balloon Artist the first responsibility is to create demand for his art. It’s not hard to please the attendees of an event when the use of multicolored and oversized balloons are his method. Once put in the hands of a child, a Balloon Sculpture becomes a walking billboard for the entertainer’s venue. Depending upon the expertise of the performer a line forms and soon it is easy for the Balloon Twister to be found.
It is up to the Balloon Artist to control the flow of his line by making sculptures that are fast yet popular. The more seasoned professional will have a repertoire of hundreds of balloon designs to choose from. This allows the artist to decide which items to make and still keep the line moving. A 20 minute wait seems acceptable at any event. There are artists who are so popular that an hour and a half wait is made worthwhile when event goers walk away with a balloon creation that is the masterpiece they requested.
You can always find a Balloon Artist that can make balloon dogs and swords for a low fee. If the event coordinators want a successful event with happy patrons, they will employ a professional who creates excitement and performs a miniature show with each creation twisted. Balloon Twisters have caught up to the pay scale of other similar acts in the party industry. Magicians, clowns, jugglers, stilt walkers and others are now competing for high paying performance fees that a Balloon Artist commands. It only makes sense that an artist wouldn’t want to be known as the cheapest, rather the best.
Balloons have become accepted not only as a novelty as in the past but now as a valid form of art. Artistic professionals using balloons as their palette have created a niche world wide with the recent advent of runway fashion shows. Top models wear custom designed dresses, hats, gowns, skirts and bikinis made of inflated balloons. These projects have attracted global acclaim for their unique approach to an established venue.
