Nicholas Gonzalez, Make-up Artist, Los Angeles

Description

This striking beauty portrait captures a subject adorned in elaborate, reflective magenta and purple metallic garments and an oversized sculpted headpiece. The makeup features extraordinary, exaggerated white and blue spiky false eyelashes radiating outward from the eyes, complemented by glitter and shimmering eyeshadow. The subject's hand is raised near the face, displaying metallic-finished manicured nails embellished with small jewels. The lighting is focused and warm, accentuating the glossy, reflective textures of the fabrics and cosmetics against a dark background. Make-up artistry is by Nicholas Gonzalez.
