Mira



I've used an entirely different palette. I thought I was getting too comfortable with my own so I emailed one of my favorite artists and asked about his choice of color. All Holbein colors that are very odd - at least for me. No more sap greens or windsor violets; more like juane brilliant, foundation umber #3, and compose green.

Dacia Gallery Selection



I was chosen by Dacia as a finalist. Didn't quite expect to be even chosen.

How I design makeup


This is my process for creating make-up designs. I've been looking at 
early Blade Runner designs particularly with the character Pris. I noticed the simplicity
of shape they used and tried to emulate that.  However, I slowly introduced more color and 
went off.

Moving on for now...I wanted my marks to stay open. I slowly 
began inching towards the surface with #2 brights. It felt like I was suffocating it. The white 
is a true issue when on skin - reflection of skin/hair. However I switched from straight galkyd gel to an actual mixture with gamsol. The consistency is a refresher for me but it allowed for milkiness.
