PHILOSOPHY VALUES

All my life, I have loved make up.  Still do!

As I work with people, there is a real joy and satisfaction in helping them....accomplish their look.

It's all about you...

Yes, I believe the most important aspect of what I do is to create the look that my subject wants and needs.  Sometimes the person does not know what they want.  My job is to guide them; show them what options are available and make recommendations.  Then, they can make the decision on what looks good....what they like!

When the bride walks down the aisle, she knows she looks and feels beautiful; the best for that event; those pictures; that moment, for herself and everyone who sees her.

Doing make up is a continuous growth and learning process for me.  I have had wonderful teachers and mentors along the way and continue to learn from them.  With High-Definition TV, for instance, there are new techniques and products to "put that game-face on".

In the theatrical world, it is fun and fantasy; creation to entertain and amaze.  The challenge is to implement the look of the characters that the director desires.  That is the part of my job that gives me meaning.

Being a make up artist is a giving profession.  It's that team effort, which gives the best results!

Kathleen did an amazing job with my make-up.  She is one of the only make-up artist that was able to find the perfect matching color make-up to my skin tone and type.  My make-up looked flawless from the foundation to the eyes shadow colors she used on me.  I absolutely love Kathleen's work and strongly recommend her.
