September/October Latest News!!!


Tina Davis:


"The work keeps on coming for Tina Davis! One of her projects was doing makeup for Jewel while working on the upcoming Toby Keith Christmas Special! That's not all... She also worked on Sara Johns for her new video, "The One in the Middle", which is her first single off of her album Big Love in a Small Town. Not only did Sara look beautiful, she is also looking every bit like the singing sensation that she is quickly becoming!"


Colleen Runne:


Colleen Runne is moving on up...to New York, that is! But don't fret Nashville, because she will still be available for all of her clients here as well! Colleen has been chosen to be part of the 10 member New York team to work on the Spring 2008 Fendi Fashion Show that will be keyed by world reknowned makeup artist, Ayako. They will be joined by a local team of 20 artists. The show will take place at the Great Wall of China in Beijing. This will be one of the most talked about events for this seasons spring 2008 fashions shows. We all know how hectic jet setting AND moving can be, but Colleen continues to show her amazing talents no matter where she is!!!


Megan Thompson:


Indie Music + Megan Thompson = Amazing Work!!! Megan Thompson showed us all what she can do when she was part of the creative process on a shoot with de novo dahl. Last time the boys worked with Scarpati Studios, they were taxidermied...wonder what he's got up his sleeve this time.


Nashville Lifestyles:


Fall is finally among us!!! In light of the season, we thought that we would spice things up! MaxArtCreative and Nashville Lifestyles magazine have been teaming up frequently for some awesome stories. First, in the September issue, Michael Gomez (photographer), Tina Davis(makeup), Lori Zachary (hair) Samantha Roe(wardrobe stylist), and Whitney Lloyd (assistant) did an Italian story that gave us all a head's up on what we can expect to be wearing when that fall weather finally arrives. Then for the October issue look out for the "Holiday Makeup" story that Michael Gomez (photographer), Tina Davis (makeup), Samantha Roe (styling), Whitney Lloyd manicurist), and John G. of Streets Salon (hair) all collaborated on to show Nashville how to powder their noses for the holiday seasons!


Christmas at Union Station:


Santa's coming to town already??? Well, maybe not, but it was "Christmas at Union Station" when the Gospel Music Channel, Tangible Vision, and MaxArtCreative got together for an amazing production. There were Christmas Carols being sung by some of the top artists of the Christian circuit, and it was enough for just about anyone to get in the holiday spirit. Tina Davis, Samantha Roe, Megan Thompson, Joseph Cassell and the assistants (Kelly Greene Jaclyn, Carly, and Whitney Lloyd) worked with the artist to get the perfect look for the season! The MaxArtCreative team certainly looks forward to working with the Gospel Music Channel and Tangible Vision for other projects in the future.


Jon Wolfe:


Music City can never have too many stars... Jon Wolfe, a hot up and coming country artist with Midas Records worked with the MaxArtCreative team recently. Wolfe did a photo shoot with Michael Gomez behind the lens, and had Tina Davis to make his handsome face even more stunning. We hope that this hot new artist shines with the best of 'em!
