Hey!
Howβre you peeling? β¦
lol Sorry I love puns so much β¦ (perhaps a bit too much =D)
I hope youβre doing well and that you will enjoy my interpretation of Igor Morskiβs mind blowing artwork ! =) Thatβs his beautiful work on the left picture and my makeup on the right.
I loooooove optical illusions ; they fascinate me and this picture had been bookmarked on my instagram account for a while, so it was time I honoured it! 
Letβs look at the transformation process, shall we?
Step by Step
This illusion makeup took me 6 hours and one of the most difficult step was in fact, to blend in the white paint nicely on my chest lolβ¦ I initially applied water-activated paint with a brush but I hated seeing all the brush strokes and the cracking (because I tried to get rid of the strokes by applying several layers of paintβ¦) so I removed it all and re-did it with oil paint and a beauty blender. Much betta !
Anyhow hereβs a little pictorial I made for you guys and further down youβll find my youtube video !

hi again, it is a great feeling to know that someone will create a great website like this and also create a write up on an article like this. even after learning the whole process i think it will take a lot of practicing for me to master it and creat a lovely one like you have done
Thank youvery much for being back ! It means a lot !
It does take time to learn how to paint but when youβre really passionate about something, youβll do anything you know?
Cheers

Wow, you are incredibly patient and creative. I donβt think I could sit still for doing makeup for 6 hours! And you must be a perfectionist too because you experimented and found the right makeup and approach to make your optical illusion. You should be in hollywood on the effects team. I can tell that this is your passion. Do you plan to do more projects like this? I will have to keep an eye on your site!
Hi !! thank you so much for the kind words, they mean a lot !
I do plan to do more projects like this, yeah, until Iβm too wrinkled to paint myself lol. I post one video a week, sometimes more but at least one tutorial a week on here, on youtube, instagramβ¦ almost everywhere! lol
As for Hollywood, hell why not, it doesnβt hurt to try, right?
Take care
Sarah
