Originally from Haddington in East Lothian, Natasha has always had an interest in makeup. As a teenager she volunteered with amateur theatrical production of The Rocky Horror Show recreating stage makeup and costumes. 

 

With a clear talent for drawing and painting from an early age, she has worked as a commissioned portrait artist and has turned her hand to various other creative projects, including designing and painting several wall murals for the Bethlem Royal Hospital in London. Her keen eye for colour and design led to further study in art and interior design.

 

Her love of makeup continued and she began to expand her knowledge and expertise by working with local photographers to build her portfolio as a makeup artist.  She decided to consolidate her skills by undertaking a professional course with the Academy of Freelance Makeup in London. Trained by top professionals including Jo Sugar and Rachel Wood, she is proficient in all aspects of makeup from beauty and bridal to catwalk and TV.

 

With a flair for creative and avant garde makeup, Natasha trained in face and body painting with internationally renowned artist Lorna Strachan. Further information and portfolio of face and body art is available at Natasha's sister website  www.psychedelictiger.com
