Art for everyone.
Art for everyone.
I believe that the arts should be accessible and enjoyable for everyone! I think that makeup is one of the most freeing forms of creativity because you can do anything with it, there are no rules! I simply want everyone, no matter the class, to be able to enjoy this art form!
Hello! My name is Mia Wetzel, I am 17 years old and based out of Arizona! I have 2 sisters who are 25 years old, and 1 brother who is 22 years old! I split my time between my mom's and my dad's house where I have a combined 5 dogs and 1 cat! My favorite artists are Louis Tomlinson, One Direction, and Green Day! My favorite songs by them are hard to choose but if I had to it would be Chicago, Walking in the Wind, and Too Much, Too Soon. I have always loved makeup since I was 3 years old, I used to sit and watch while my mom and sister would get ready, mesmerized by the way it applied and how it made them feel. As I got older the love flourished with the discovery of Youtubers. I grew up watching those of James Charles, Nikkie Tutorials, Jefferee Star and more. I discovered theatre when I was about 8 years old, meaning if you do that math I have been doing theatre for about 9 years! I have been in many school productions, one acts, and a few community theatre shows. I Have always loved acting and actually in the second highest performance class on my campus that is audition only! However I am also in the highest technical theatre class my school offers. This being said if you asked my friends and family what I want to do in my life they would, without skipping a beat, say I want to be a makeup artist! More specifically my specialty is SFX! I already have experience applying and creating prosthetics, along with work in bruising and scars. I spend most of my free time either watching Tv, hanging out with friends, or thinking up new makeup designs!
Welcome to the "shows" section of my website! This is where I will show the final product of shows I have designed, including 3 of my favorite designs from each show! Each show will have its own section with the title of the show at the top. Enjoy!

My design technique is one that I find to be very unique, as instead of using basic colored pencils, or markers, or some other standard art supply I use chalk. I hand mix each color to match what I envision! For the base shade I choose a shade that matches a majority of the areas demographic, unless specifically stated
Face on was a competition at my state Thespian Festival in which competitors would submit a design before hand, then have one hour to recreate said design on a person. I chose to do mine on Ariel from The Tempest by William Shakespeare. Ariel is a mischievous air spirit that lurks in dark corners. I incorporated this into my design with a wind swept hair look cr4eated by wire, blue makeup with sharp contours, and even a glow in the dark element.
EAFT is my chapter thespian competition in which I presented 5 designs of a given show. The show I chose to present was Suite Surrender by Michael McKeever. I also spoke about a "stage makeup workshop" I implemented to combat the growing number of actors that were thrown into theatre and never properly taught stage makeup. I received 2 perfect scores and 1 18/20.
