MARIA PAVLOU
I am a recent graduate with a Media Design diploma, and I bring a unique blend of skills as a graphic designer, makeup artist, and SFX makeup artist. Proficient in all Adobe software, including Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects, and Adobe Premiere, I also have expertise in UX/UI design and have completed a marketing course. My diverse skill set enables me to create visually compelling designs for various media, from logos and posters to videos and event materials. Passionate about the beauty industry, I am eager to leverage my creative talents and technical skills to contribute to innovative and impactful projects.


My desicions
Since my formative years, a profound passion for color, creativity, and the pursuit of uniqueness has driven my artistic journey. Navigating the path to a lifelong vocation, I gravitated towards makeup artistry, choosing to specialize in the intricacies of Special Effects (SFX) makeup. This decision not only allowed me to transcend conventional boundaries but also revealed the transformative power of makeup in accentuating individual beauty.
My foundational education in SFX makeup took place at Yarin Shahaf Makeup School, where I delved into the technical nuances of crafting captivating illusions. Witnessing the empowering impact of makeup, particularly in the enhancement of feminine beauty, fueled my artistic vision.

Projects as aSFX makup artist

In 2020, I undertook a comprehensive exploration of the graphic design discipline, attending a course in wizodzn collage.
.This experience served as a pivotal moment, leading me to enroll in the Graphic Design program at School of Engineering at the Technion in 2022, where I continue to refine my skills.
This dual commitment to SFX makeup and graphic design signifies not only a dedication to technical proficiency but also a pursuit of purposeful creativity. The amalgamation of these disciplines serves as a canvas for storytelling, where each stroke, be it in makeup or design, contributes to a broader narrative.
