Nicky Fletcher The Makeup Artist

It’s me, hi! So many new followers since the last time I introduced myself. I would love to tell you a little about my creative journey that has led me to become a Professional Makeup Artist. When I finished school I studied Graphic Design with aspirations of working in the magazine industry, in particular, fashion and beauty. I wanted to have a thorough understanding of all aspects of the industry, and therefore undertook extra study in Photography and Makeup Artistry. After a stint as a Freelance Graphic Artist I did what every other 20 something was doing with their tertiary education – packed my bags and moved to London #goodtimes. When I returned home I felt a passion for Makeup Artistry and enrolled in various masterclasses and courses to further my skills which allowed me to work as a makeup artist alongside my full time work. Five years ago the opportunity presented itself for me to pursue a full time career in makeup artistry and led me along a creative path that I genuinely love and enjoy.

I’m a creative soul. I’ve dabbled in a lot of aspects of creative arts over the years – illustration, painting, typography and signwriting, millinery, photography, design, sewing, arts and crafts. It’s a passion, and I’m extremely grateful that I have been able to turn my creative passion into a career.
