A friend from work had won a benefit boutique makeover, so we descended their Carnaby Street store on a Friday and sat around waiting to be made (more) beautiful. 😉
There were five of us, laughing and taking photos as we went from our normal selves to versions more akin to those glossy magazine photos of young(ish) and health(ier) women. It was good fun, sitting around a pink room, with the make up artists asking what we would prefer and how we normally did our makeup.
So, makeup by a professional completed, my friend N. snapped a nice photo of me and I uploaded it on Instagram (and flickr).
A few days later, Mr. Pierre Lindenbaum chanced on the flickr photo and decided to use it for his ‘one drawing per day’ project. So I got a second makeover. A digital one.

Pierre reckons he will be looking at his handiwork in a little while and cringe (see his lovely explanation of this effect) but he gave me his kind permission to share his creation.
When things like this happen, I do tend to go off into my little world of academic overdrive, thinking about bricolage but that’s a story for another time.
So, what do you think? Which makeover was best?
Hello my family member! I wish to say that this article is amazing, great written and come with approximately all vital infos. I would like to see extra posts like this .
The root of your writing while sounding agreeable originally, did not work perfectly with me personally after some time. Someplace within the sentences you managed to make me a believer unfortunately just for a short while. I still have a problem with your leaps in assumptions and you would do well to help fill in those gaps. If you actually can accomplish that, I could certainly be amazed.
Thank you for your sharing. I am worried that I lack creative ideas. It is your article that makes me full of hope. Thank you. But, I have a question, can you help me?
