None of what I have done, presently do, or will do in the future, can be attributed to any special talent of my own. I give my first and total thanks to God, who without his grace and mercy, I would not be blessed with the passion and pleasure I feel when applying make up and teaching others what I do. I cannot express it better than,"take my hands and let them move at the impulse of thy love."
I thank all of my fellow artists that have encouraged, complimented, and critiqued my work. Without your honesty, I would be living in pretense, rather than reality. I hold your work high and aspire to be as good as you!
I thank all of the ladies who have sat in my chair, all of the brides who have said “I do” feeling as beautiful as they are, and all of the dancers, performers, and models. I thank all the children who have laughed, hugged, oohed and aahed, or said “cool” when looking in the mirror.
I thank Oops C. Daisy, who introduced me to face painting, a true friend, mentor, and best clown in Northern California; Louise, the best butt-kicker in town; and Giselle of Alexandria’s Formal Wear for her ethics -- all strong and powerful women.
I thank Citymax website design that has undertaken the rather painful job of teaching me how to build our beautiful new website. I thank my new BFFs, Cameron and Stephanie, for walking hand-in-hand through it all, which trust me, has not been easy. I have nothing but the highest respect for web site builders!
I unconditionally thank our team: Genevie for her creativity and love, Danielle for her skill and love, Charmin for her talent and love, and Megan for her artistry and love. I thank my family and friends, and most of all – I thank YOU for your belief, faith, shared loved of artistry, and patronage. I love you more!
