In this DesignTalk, Richard shares 2 very different contexts to examine their impact and the opportunities they present to design.

I did stage/costume makeup for an aerials competition recently, these were some of the trials! My marathon 8 girls in 4 hours!
Not too shabby for like 20 minutes each! Loved making the girls from my studio happy ;)
Swatched/inventoried my entire makeup collection! I put together some makeup application packages for an upcoming competition and wanted a clear and visual way for my competitors to see what makeup I had available to them!
Nights & Weekends: Mother Idolization
Custom Barbie Birthday (for Mom!)
A Birthday present I made for my wonderful mother, Paula. She instilled me with a lifelong love of dolls, fashion, beauty, and creation; so I decided to create a Barbie portrait of her in the image of her modeling days in her 20's. I always pined over the series of black and white photos from the 70's that she took with a photographer friend; always sure she was (and is) the most beautiful woman in the world. Perhaps making a little idol of her might help her realize it!
This is my mother around age 25. The photographs are from the short series in her portfolio.
