Illamasqua #2
This image is inspiring because the pattern and colours show similarities to the fabrics used to make Tudor gowns, particularly towards the end of the 16th century when everything became more detailed and decadent. Taking this texture and applying it to face has made me think about where I am using particular colours, textures, patterns and shapes and whether I should mix it up a little to see what happens.
Illamasqua
I first encountered Illamasqua when I was studying towards my Foundation in Art and Design and Alex Box came in to give a demonstration. Alex is originally from Grimsby, where I am from, and studied at the same college, specialising in fine art painting. She is now a very successful Make-up artist based in London and partner in the Illamasqua company. I find her work absolutely incredible as she really stretches make up art much further than simply making people look lovely. As you can see in the films (links posted below), she creates a complete character with her work and I find it very inspiring.
