Practice Sesh: G. #2

I dreamt about this. So that morning when I woke up I painted this on his sleeping face.. But it really struck me when he opened his eyes.


(Don't mind his look, I assume it's rather weird to wake up to your make-up-smeared girlfriend obsessively taking pictures of you at insanely close proximity.)

I think this is one of the prettiest (rough version, ofcourse) concepts I've ever conjured up and I'm probably gonna slather this on everyone I can get my hands on. Beware.

Finally got my camera to load, except for this one make up I made my man suffer through. Madness. So here's a few shots.


We had to do this in class. Quite fond of it, I used to wear my lipstick like that when I was all goth 'nd bothered. Though me being 13 then, I daresay it was less precise.. Not bad for a first 'official' try, says I.


That night I went to work @ Jimmy Woo as every sunday. Like this. I like to think of it as Twiggy à la Ace. The lid is liquid silver, btw.

Testshoot Renee @ Ego's Models.

Sem "asked" me to do the make up for this try-out testshoot he had planned (for the next day, his mastery of last-minuteness has no bounds) with a plus-sized model. Figuring I could use all the practice I could reasonably get- and being hellbent on figuring out his current work- I joined in.

And this is what happened.







First time ever doing natural stuff..

Hola Chola at Supperclub Video.

So a week or two ago I was supposed to assist Yokaw at the shooting of the new Hola Chola's promo-videoshoot, done by Bubba.

All in all I ended up doing 2 out of 3 of the make up looks with Yokaw doing hair. Rather glad how it turned out, too.







Work!

It's 4:17am, but at least I finished my homework. I'm starting to develop a severe hatred for all things paper. Screw this, let me put it on your face.

The assignment was something to do with charities. I figured African ones would be thoroughly represented during class so I digressed. I decided to pick a charity foundation I'd found out a while back, S.O.P.H.I.E. .

It's about aesthetic diversity and the lack of respect for it. Seeing as I've had my fair share of namecalling on whatever city's streets I personally felt more for this than any other foundation. I'm not a very charitable person.

At first I'd chosen Wolves & Humans, but as I was busy glueing fur hairs one-at-the-time I'd figured me using the fur of my own beloved furcoats for an animal-centered foundation was utter bullshit.

Now for my 4 hours of sleep.

P.S. Oh- the idea behind the make ups was to show there's more to a person than whatever they choose to smear on their face, by using a mask-like idea.
