Twinkles
is a full-time professional clown, well known and loved for
her warm personality. She brings smiles and laughter to
audiences of all ages. Twinkles specializes in Balloon Art,
Face Painting, Fun Magic Shows and just plain Clownin'
Around.
Twinkles
has been clowning around and bringing joy to the world for
over 28 years. Twinkles inherited her funny bone from her
mom - Jingles (in Missouri since 1989). JINGLES &
TWINKLES clowned around at the
“Conference on the Power of Laugher and Play”
in California at the Disneyland Hotel in 1986. Jingles has
always been an inspiration to Twinkles.
In 1984 Twinkles won 2nd Place at the World Clown
Association Convention for MakeUp and Costume in the
Whiteface Category.
Twinkles' has two main goals:
(1) to provide quality family entertainment and
(2) to provide positive memories that will last a lifetime!
Twinkles has attended five clown camps at the University of
Wisconsin at LaCrosse Wisconsin, learning lots from masters
like Lou Jacobs, Mark Anthony, Buttons, Pricilla
Mooseburger, and many more. Half Pint has also been an
incredibly inspiring role model. All were Ringling Brothers
clowns with BIG hearts, BIG talents and a HUGE willingness
to share. Clown Camp at the University Wisconsin-La Crosse
is the largest clown training program in the world. Clown
camp began in 1981 and was held every year in the summer;
2009 was the LAST year Clown Camp was held at LaCrosse.
Twinkles has developed skills through frequent attendance
of World Clown Association Conventions, Clowns of America
Association Conventions, local training sessions and
regional conferences. Twinkles believes clowning is about
face painting, magic, balloon art, respectful interaction,
and most of all, wholesome and fun entertaining!
Twinkles’
party children remember her fondly into their adulthood and
love running into her 5, 10, and 15 years later. They say
she is one of their most cherished childhood memories.
These “grown up little kids” greet her with squeals of
delight and warm hugs, often sharing memories and pictures
with her. It’s also very common that Twinkles is their
choice of a clown when their little ones are celebrating
birthdays.
In
1993 Twinkles won recognition for the BEST Business Plan at
TVI-Albuquerque submitted to SCORE!
