The cat is out of the bag! I took 3rd for Willamette Week best of Portland in the MUA category! Thank you to everyone who took the time to vote for me! Next year I’m going for the gold! Meanwhile I’m starting to get back into the swing of things after having my little gremlin and can’t wait to put out more art! 🤩

A mother’s prayer 🖤
Throwback to when I was pregnant with Onyx! I obviously had to do a horror maternity shoot! So here’s some of my favorites from my Rosemary’s baby inspired shoot! A week later Onyx entered this world! 🍼😈
Huge thanks to Aida Santizo | Oregon Photographer, Lindy Paris, and David A Bliss for shooting this concept and making my vision come to life! Also huge thank you to Kayla Rodriguez for letting me borrow some amazing props to bring it all together! And lastly thank you to Jennie Ryder for painting the demon hands on Rose, and of course to Rose for being my devil entity ❤️

Tomorrow is my first Mother’s day and I am so incredibly excited! Here’s a rare Onyx post from when he was so tiny, at the cherry blossoms early this spring. I think he was a month old here 🥹🖤🌸

Miss Udder Sweetheart 💖 Today was the first day of and sadly with having a new baby and also having some work come up, im not there. The makeup competition didn’t happen this year but im hoping it comes back. So in honor of missing one of my favorite events of the year, i’d like to finally show off my winning look from last year’s competition! I worked so incredibly hard on putting this look together and im so glad my efforts paid off! I made the nose and udder prosthetics 100% myself all the way from sculpting to the final product. So naturally we had to do a shoot in the hotel room which of course included a milk bath! Look out Crypticon, and i will be back next year along with a 1 year old to get weird and spooky!
