January 2010: Week 1

It is at this point that I realize that I have been out of high school about 10yrs, out of college 5yrs and out of my makeup school 3yrs.  It is also at this point that I have a great job doing one thing and now I want to have an amazing career doing something completely different.  I have been doing makeup here and there throughout the year but hasn't really been consistent until this year. Most of my weekends are beginning to book and I'm starting to think about doing more advertising, including; magazines, bridal expos, etc.  Because of this an event happened that was a turning point in my makeup career.  By attending the Phoenix Bridal Expo on January 9th I met a team of artists...Artistry On Location.  Which started an amazing chain of events that is doing more for me than any kind of advertising.Artistry On Location is a team of artists that is an all inclusive website for airbrush makeup artists, hair stylist and spray tanners.  After meeting this team I quickly networked with the owner Heather Wilson (an amazing artist) and began the process to become a part of this team.  After doing a full makeup application in front of her, yes it was nerve-racking but after I was done I was asked to be a part of the team.  Permanent smile let me assure you.  Check out www.artistryonlocation.com if you want to see more about this site.
