Who is the Ladder Lady?
Hi there! Thanks for coming by the website!
I’m Debbie Novak Bouman aka the “Ladder Lady” in & around the Lehigh Valley.
I’m a local girl, born & raised in Bethlehem, PA. A single mom to 2 awesome, creative young men.
When my 30 year financial management career ended in late 2016, I decided to move in a different direction. I was creating custom home decor for several shops in the area.
At a family restaurant night, I had a chance to face paint & also attend Musikfest in 2017. Seeing the reaction on children & adults was so awesome ~ I loved it and was hooked!
I have now focused my attention on this art medium & I am learning everything I can & i practice, practice, practice!!!
I would love to be part of your celebration by face painting at your next event! Please contact me anytime!
Live in the moment & be awesome today!

WHERE IS MY HOME DECOR?

Contact me directly for any custom work or project your considering & I can create your vision in my home workshop.
"A true artist has his or her own vision and creates those."
For myself and my work, its different, making me unique from so many artists. I take my customers vision & recreate what they see. It’s face and body art with an edge......
Face painting today is not the typical carnival attraction of yesterday. My vision for this awesome art medium is to think outside the box & you can incorporate the art of face & Body painting into anything. This experience is fun for ANY age or gender! Special designs can be created for any theme, celebration, or event. The possibilities are endless...
Think about it...character themed parties, every holiday not just Halloween (Valentines, St Patrick’s Day, 4th of July, Christmas) and also elegant celebrations like New Years Eve, MasqueradeBalls, Mardi Gras, Fire & Ice Balls.
Then there are the music festivals, UV Black Light parties, cosplay events like Comicon, Stage & Theater production, films, photo shoots, & music video production.
Go team! Show your team spirit at high school sporting events with team colors war paint, college tailgate parties, or pro sports games! You can book face painter for playoff game parties or Super Bowl parties.
As I said before, the possibilities are endless!
We are now booking Face Painting events and private parties! Request a free quote for your next event and make it one you & your guests will never forget ~ I guarantee it!
