Bio
Stevie T. specializes in a multitude of versatile looks and styles in make-up artistry. Aptly known for his otherworldly avant guarde approach, his focus is concentrated on bringing the personal beauty of his clients to fruition. Beauty, that he insists, “. . .was already in existence.”
Stevie T. has always had a keen eye for composition, color theory, and application in all of his works. He firmly believes these are the keystone for stellar make-up artistry. He clearly states, “...I'm a licensed Cosmetologist but I don't think that makes someone qualified outright. Some of the best makeup artists in the industry in all genres are self taught! I've always been into the arts and it took hair school for me to realize the very type of canvas I was meant to be working with...and i'm always challenging myself and learning the type of uniqueness, creativity, nerve and talent it really takes to be a true self guided artist.”
Recently in June 2010, he attended IMATS (International Makeup Artist Trade Show) in Pasadena, CA -one of 7 cities in the world that get visited by this show each year. There he was able to meet some of his idols (Josh "Petrilude" of Youtube.com talent and fame, Kevin James Bennett-multi Emmy winner & Rae Morris-Makeup Artist of the Year 4 times in a row title holder as well as Australia's only Ambassador of L'Oreal). Stevie T. was blessed to learn new special techniques through 10 hours of specialized education and speak with such talented and successful makeup artists of all genres.
Beginning his journey as a sketch artist and painter, his talent manifested to include various other mediums, most recently being Jewelry making. This is why it is no surprise that while attending Cosmetology school in Northwestern Pennsylvania, he naturally gravitated toward make-up artistry. Beauty school began a winding journey in which he pursued his interest in makeup application in his leisure time as well as experimenting on himself and friends. Within a year his passion for beauty and emotion spawned the purest of deep awakenings that significantly contributed to his current accomplishments and overall ambition.
