“The journey of a Makeup Artist is infinite. We mess up , we learn , we mess up again and we accept our failure with every stroke we take with our brush , praying to the makeup Gods that we don’t mess up again . That’s the way of the game. When I first started my journey , I dedicated my work to the beauty industry. My body and soul craved for more , so I started to mess with character designs using regular beauty makeup not knowing that that actual Spfx makeup really existed. It wasn’t until I joined a haunt called “ Dark Harbor “ which was located at the Queen Mary in Long Beach CA . I learned so many essential techniques at the haunt that have helped me in so many other projects later in life . Working in a fast pace environment is super crucial at a haunt , that allowed me to speed up my process , how to lead / train a group of artist into the season and walk them through new challenges that they may come across , and as time passed by (after haunt) I learned more about working on set and productions , which allowed me to take some of those techniques and implement that into my own art With my own team.”
