For my senior thesis project at Drexel University, I chose to create an in-depth, visually driven book that explores the art of makeup prosthetics and special effects makeup. This project represents the culmination of my academic journey and personal passion, combining extensive research with hands-on creative work. The book delves into the rich history of special FX makeup, profiles influential and pioneering artists in the field, and breaks down the technical processes involved in crafting prosthetic and makeup effects. Additionally, it features my own artistic exploration through original photographs, sculptural designs, and applied makeup looks that I conceptualized, designed, and executed myself. This project not only reflects my dedication to the craft but also serves as a tribute to the artistry and innovation that define the world of special effects makeup
