Statue.


This is my second attempt at hand making a prosthetic piece. For this photo shoot I sculpted a very sharp-edged brow prosthetic. I wanted to transform my model into some sort of living statue. Although the photos are in black and white the colors are accurate to what it would look like in color. I used varying shades of grey and varying textures to create the look. After bundling Lexie up in my braided scarves and wool jacket I poured a mixture of unset stone over certain parts of the outfit to further the stone statue effect.
Here's a picture of lovely Lexie and I so you can get an idea of what she looks like on a regular day.

Old man.




This is the final product of an aging technique we learned in special effects. It's pretty funny to see what your friends could look like when they're older.

Here's another aging makeup I did in class.

Alex Waber presented the idea of doing a tribal photo shoot in a 'locked up' and 'hidden away' environment. He wanted the photos to portray us pushing away our native past. Me and Carolyn ran with the idea and had a lot of fun creating makeups and outfits for the models.

Glossy.


This was a fashion class final project. I decided to make everything very glossy for this particular look, the eye makeup, the cheeks the lips.

Photo shoot for Kim.

This Photo shoot was to help promote Kim Bellavance's "girls days" photography workshops. I had a lot of fun working on this shoot, and I loved working with my model Tara, she was so awesome. I definitely recommend her talent.

Photo shoot with Jessica.

I've worked with Jessica a couple times now. This shoot was to help build her portfolio and she was kind enough to invite me to be her makeup artist.

Dead Woman.


This was our special effects midterm. We had to create a latex age makeup. I decided to make my classmate into a kind of skeletal dead woman, mummified perhaps.

Vampire.


This is my Airbrushing final project. I created a Vampire inspired by the artwork of Takato Yamamoto. This was my first full body paint, and although it's time consuming I had a lot of fun and I was pretty happy with the final result. I made a head piece and sleeves out of heavy cotton and flowers out of paper.

Strawberry Girl.





This look was based around Cammy's juicy lips! We made the shoot a little bit playful by incorporating some delicious strawberries. Yummy!

Flour.

This was a final project I created for school.  I designed the outfit on the spot with lots of fabric and pins, and then doused poor Lexie in flour.

At home.

I like to play dress-up with friends when I get the chance. This is my first attempt at male make-up, it's a little androgynous but I like that.
