Shanti Mathew Theatrical Makeup - (posted 6/26/08) I would like to understand the basics, to the more complex in doing Theatrical Makeup. I would certainly consider trading tutorials for time to help on plays, etc. I am not looking for the basics of clown painting, but more sophisticated work such as making an individual look 20 years younger or 20 years older. I'm a quick study, but need to actually DO versus read books on it. This 'art' doesn't lend itself well to book reading.
