Portfolio: Track & Field
I have another photoshoot breakdown today, I posted a picture to my instagram yesterday showing 'When a face chart come to life'. This Track and Field shoot was for Chase Magazine issue 3. We wanted an androgynous, sporty high fashion shoot so this make-up sprung to mind for me. It's strong, moody and angular. The brows were the hardest in creating this overall look, it is those that...

Inside My Kit: Storing Pigments
I asked you guys if you were interested in posts on my kit and everyone said YES! Kit transportation and storage is personal to each artist as we all have our own way of keeping organised and more importantly minimising our entire collection which is probably more difficult than carrying the kit itself.

Louis Vuitton Inspired Shoes
Recently I attended an event held by Nelly.com, inside the venue there were dozens of shoes encased in glass with the name of each shoe next to it. We were given a card to write down our top 3 choices of the shoes which then had to be tapped into the Nelly system so that one of our selected shoes could be sent out complimentary! My top choice was the mint green Jade heels complete with gold...
