Make-up Artistry Mission & Goal
A make-up artist, founder of www.pmag.ca, being brought up in Hong Kong, influenced by the “East Meets West” culture, the interest of learning the composition of the art form and usage of colors has been developed since childhood. Trained and educated at the faculty of visual arts & communication studies in University of Windsor & graduated in make-up art at George Brown College, a well known community college for fashion related studies in downtown Toronto, created an opportunity to understand and apply the color theory, which help to pursuit the perfection of make-up art creation on human faces.

| By creating & transforming images from different color & texture, which leads to explore and enhance the new make-up techniques & products, this is the most interesting part of her make-up artistry career and putting make-up on faces as exciting as creating life form sculpture exhibiting in a public gallery. |
