~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
and about me........

I am best known for my imagination and ability to create ANYTHING out of ANYTHING. I love and enjoy playing with colors and shapes, and enjoy my work most when it tells a story.

I love fantasy work and period work because it tells a specific story of time, place, and character.

BUT, i also LOVE gore and horror makeups because they give me the chance to really push limits and make something look frightening real.

I am trying to make contacts with models who don't mind getting dirty and ruffled up for the their art, who don't mind getting messy for the shot, who want to push limits with their work, who want to say something meaningful. or just look really really cool. seriously, beautiful collaborations can do so much.

I never flake out, am habitually early, and always polite and professional. I was raised to be a good southern gal, and i always am, yes ma'am.
