The Art of Makeup Round 2

Soo, I just wrapped my 2nd makeup workshop called "The Art of Makeup" at the College of Southern Nevada.  I have to say, I LOVE teaching!  It is so fulfilling to be a part of making someone feel good about themselves.  When I meet a woman who feels terrible because she hasn't a clue about makeup but genuinely wants to learn to make herself look good and can do just that by the end of my class.... that makes me feel really good.  Like in some small way, I make a difference.  I am excited to say that my 3rd workshop will be in the summer semester this year in July and that instead of four 2hr classes, it will be two 4hr Saturday afternoon classes!  I've also been talking with various sponsors and I am just super excited for this 3rd class!  Keep checking www.syclark-makeupartist/Pretty-SyC.html for all the details! 

Here is a pic with me and a few of my students...

Grammy Girl

I had the pleasure to work to glam up B. Taylor and his date, Whitney, for the Grammys this year in Hollywood.  Me and my Glam Fam:  Elliott Chester - Master Barber, Wardrobe Stylist and Owner of Elliott & Co. here in Vegas along with Fabulous Hairstylist, Nicole Vitole, headed westward into LA LA Land for the chaos that is Grammys weekend.

GO FAST! With Sy Clark

So, not too long ago, I partnered with my Photographer friend Jamie Thomson in creating my DOPE logo. Well, while at it, I decided to add something fun that really captures a part of my personality... my Go Fast energy drink! LOL. ANYone who knows me, knows I am a COMPLETE Go Fast addict. If I could get away with drinking only Go Fast, I would. So, I saved all my Go Fast cans for like 3 weeks, which summed up to about 100...( see told ya, complete addict) and creatively directed some photos to include them in.

I sent Go Fast a few of the final shots and in return, they sent me a case of Go Fast and added me onto one of their Facebook promos! LOL... I LOVE GO FAST!

 

Get "Taken" Behind the Scenes!

First let me just say that I am quite honored to be a part of welcoming new Artist, Lee Lee into the industry.  We are finally in the final stages in the editing process of Lee Lee’s music video for her 1^st single, “Taken” featuring Baby Bash. I had sooo much fun working on this project! I LOVE my little Lee Lee cupcake! This girl is not only one of the funniest, wittiest, nicest, prettiest, most sarcastic, people I know, she can also flex a tune or two… She is my magical print-mixing life partner! ……….

Vegas Rocks! Magazine Award Show Highlights....

                                        

Hey Rockers!

Here’s the video from the FIRST EVER Vegas Rocks! Magazine Award Show that I am quite proud to have worked on last August!! The Publishing Queen of Rock, Sally Steele, was a doll to work with, even at the most cluster-#@!ed moments of the night! She single-handedly put this entire event together, and that’s amazing. I blogged about the event last year, check it out! I am also so very grateful to have met and worked with Award winning Celebrity Barber, Jay Bee. Friends always! *HUGS*. Look closely and you can see me and Jay Bee posted in the back just off the red carpet, LOL. Enjoy!

Sy & The Proust Questionnaire

Soooo the infamous Proust Questionnaire is about ones personality. In the late 19th century, it was common among English families to answer such a list of questions that revealed the tastes and aspirations of the taker.

A similar questionnaire is regularly seen in the back pages of Vanity Fair Magazine answered by various celebrities and both Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen have included their own sets of responses in their book, “Influence”.

Because I’m equally as fabulous, lol, I decided to answer the questionnaire at the start of each year.

HAPPY 2011!!

Heeey everyone!!! Hope you all had a nice holiday season and a fabulous new year! I actually spent my News Years Eve alone and regrouping. I just wasn’t into partying it up this year. Felt like I just needed some alone time to create the right path for this new year. Reflecting on mistakes I made or things I just could’ve done differently and how to rise above and beyond them, correct them and reemerge as something even more spectacular! Not setting “resolutions” but simply swapping bad habits for good ones.

One of my biggest problems last year was procrastination. Procrastination is my devil and he definitely held me down. Being unorganized is…was… another one of my fallbacks. For me, procrastination leads to disorganization leads to just feeling overwhelmed and scatterbrained. Everything stems from usually just one thing. Fixing the problem starts with recognizing the main issue. I am happy to say that I have developed for myself a “grid of organization“….

This year has had an absolutely amazing beginning!!! Soo much is going on and I’m holding on tight for the ride. Anything is possible! Things are finally fitting into place…

Music Videos, Runway Shows, RAW Showcase, Workshops....
Stay tuned for some amazing adventures this year!
