About The Chicago Make Up Artist
For her 21st birthday, Jill was given a private lesson with a renowned make up artist. From that day forward, she realized the power, beauty and art of make up. Thereafter, Jill spent every available moment, experimenting and learning the subtle art of make up. For each event and special occasion, friends and family would come to her for that special look. However, it did not occur to Jill to become a professional make up artist. Instead, she did the sensible thing, she completed college and law school, and practiced corporate law for ten years. Jill then married, raised three daughters, all the while continuing to explore and experiment with make up.

When her daughters were older, Jill briefly returned to the practice of law. However, she quickly realized that she was driven to become a professional make up artist. She quit her law job and attended Columbia College, earning a Certificate in Make Up Artistry. Jill has established a successful freelance practice, specializing in media makeup. She has thereby utilized her experience in both business and art, hopefully serving as a role model for her daughters, all of whom are currently pursuing careers in the arts, thereby wasting no time in following their passions!
