ABOUT
Kevin Lim is a professional makeup artist who fell into the industry mainly by accident. A portrait artist since the age of 10, he developed a curiosity towards the people he drew.
Landing in the US at 2009; he then worked a small job as a facepainter in one of the major theme parks in Anaheim where he is known to have crazy ideas and complex designs. Through his innate talent, he was invited to assist at body paint shows where people took immediate notice of his skill catching the attention of models and photographers in that industry. The demand for the skill rouse toward offers to work on collaborative photo shoots opening the floodgates to the professional makeup world.
Constant research pushed his designs fusing beauty, fashion and fine art. His designs involve crafting costumes as well as simple prosthetics application and the use of unconventional materials to achieve looks.
Make-up artistry has shown him how a creative mind can be godlike having the ability to transform the norm into an entirely different entity. May it be the sublime or the macabre, all of it seemed boundless.
“I am an artist/designer who is passionate about using the artistry of make up to create cinematic images that challenge the audience’s imagination. My goal is to provide an emotional experience through my visions and my job is to break through the surface and capture the parallel persona within”.
