Alex Hansen and Special Effects Makeup

Alex Hansen the 2008 World Bodypainting Festival Winner, placed third in the world at the 2009 Bodypainting Festival in the category of Special Effects Makeup demonstrating his abilities in all the disciplines of Makeup Artistry. With an entry that would make horror film monsters scream, Mr. Hansen pushed the envelop of Special Effects Makeup and created a character that was extreme gore. Creating a character whose body organs were on the outside of his body, Alex stretched the limits of Special Effects Makeup. Alex Hansen designed the Headpiece on his Special Effects inside out man, and received a hand from Yolanda Bartram who used her skill with fabrication to assist in bringing Mr. Hansen's vision to the stage.

Using LUX Airbrush Makeup, Alex Hansen completed the makeup artistry involved in creating his Special Effects Character for presentation to fellow makeup artists from over forty countries who attended and entered the competitions at the 2009 World Bodypainting Festival. Mr. Hansen continually expands into all aspects of Makeup Artistry and blends various Makeup Disciplines into each other to create everything from the horrific to the stunningly beautiful. Using a variety of mediums in his creations allows Mr. Hansen the ability to create the visions that enter his mind and turn them into temporary reality with Makeup and the Tools of his Art.
