Sunflower the Clown came to exist in May 2001. She was given as a gift by way of a dream in May 2001 but had her first corporate debut in December 2001. Since then, Sunflower has been in a whirlwind of fun, faces, and new things to learn, see and do! Sunflower has been a member of the Toronto Clown Alley, she attended Clown Fun 2002 conference in Calgary, Alberta, and won a gold medal for the personal make up category of Auguste Clowns. And has attended and been a presenter/trainer at conferences since then. Recently Sunflower the Clown won a prestigious 2nd place award in the Professional Facepainting division at the International Fabiac 2010 Face and Body Art Convention in Orlando Florida.
