Brush With Fame






Monday morning I received a call asking if I did "Celebrity Makeup", and would I be available Wednesday night.  I of course said, "YES".  After some schedule juggling and last minute running around on Wednesday, I had the great pleasure of doing the makeup for both Stacy Keach, who has a long and illustrious career on screen, you may remember him from "The Hammer", as well as Bill Kurtis, who you may know from A&E.  They were both here in Washington DC narrating for the VA-Medical Musical Group who performed Wednesday evening at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception which will air later this month on PBS.  This was a wonderful experience for me.  They were truly down to earth and extremely friendly.  Unfortunately, I didn't have the opportunity to do any wild dramatic evening eye makeup,or show either of them "how anyone can wear red lipstick", but I was able to give Stacy that "sun-kissed" look by using the "Artistry Bronzing Powder" and I showed Bill how to quick fix wild flyaway hair without hairspray ;o)
