So, Halloween is in the air! I know, I know... you're probably saying, "Uh.... Doctor... Where the hell have you been?" But seriously, although Halloween is my favorite time of year, I haven't really felt it until a day or two ago. Hell, it wasn't until a little over a week ago that it even felt like Fall around here. But now there are pumpkins, spooks and a certain crispness in the air that I associate with Halloween. (Of course, the Texas Fall crispness differs from the Fall crispness in the northeast, but I'll take what I can get.) Unfortunately, I will miss a big Halloween shin-dig tomorrow night because my in-laws will be in town (dammit), but Halloween night I am planning on using my makeup design skills to create a masterpiece, using my face as the canvas; watching really good, bad horror movies; and passing out goodies to the neighborhood ghouls. Speaking of make-up; I'm pretty excited since I have client this year. That is, a friend of mine has 'hired' me to do her makeup design this Halloween. I have designed shows before, (but nothing stylized), and I've obviously designed my own face for Halloween several times, but this is the first time that I will be doing someone else's Halloween makeup. (Well, actually, I remember doing something on the fly for a friend in 1997 - It came out really well, but I didn't get to take a picture of it for my portfolio). Anywho... I am hoping that I can sell myself as a makeup artist for several Halloween events in the future - here we go!
*For the purists wondering why I didn't "add more cowbell" with the Blue Oyster Cult, I couldn't fit their original version on the disc, so I had to use the Caesars shorter version.
