"All arts need a place to be seen or experienced. In the world of Make-Up Artistry the canvas is the human body".
I am a qualified Make-Up artist based in London, fully trained in all Make-Up areas, but specializing in Special Effects and Prosthetic.
My qualifications include a VCTV in Fashion and Photographic Make-Up and a BTEC Lev 3 in Production Arts which covered Catwalk, Theatrical, Period, Film and TV, Body Painting, Special Effects, Prosthetic and Hair.
I am also coming from a Beauty Therapist background, with a NVQ LEv 2 qualification.
How do I see myself in the future? My main goal is to work in films as a special effects & prosthetic MAke-Up artist, but I am well aware that it might take long time and it will not be easy as drinking a glass of water. So in the while, and due to my high interest in the subject, I am planning to organize parties and kids birthdays where I can do face painting or themed Make-Up.
Being in the hospitality for over 4 years, I learnt how to deal with lots of different people and requests, and this helped me a lot in my life too. I also learnt how to be part of a team and think on my feet at the same time; but I guess that after all this time spent in the hospitality, is now time to make my dream come true.
I am looking for photographers and models to expand my portfolio, but also to assist other MUA as you never finish to learn, get experience and discover new products and techniques.
Please contact me a week in advance for any job, as I need to book time off. I am looking forward to work with you all,
Barbara.
