Meet Patrick de Fontbrune
Artist of the Month
Born and raised in France, Patrick de Fontbrune settled in Los Angeles in the late 1980's to pursue his career as a make-up artist. Supporting himself as a waiter at night, de Fontbrune spent his days as an apprentice to some of the best artists of the day. Before long, Patrick had mastered the basics and developed his own style. With determination, he quickly rose to the top, signed with one of the best agencies in Los Angeles and is now booked solid on commercial and fashion shoots. He is the make up artist of choice for some of the most famous faces in the public eye. Not only is he a very talented artist, he is also compassionate, generous and a joyous positive force to be around. He has the gift of making whoever is lucky enough to sit in his chair feel beautiful.
