HELLO

I'm Ermi, a Sydney based creative designer and I've been designing since 2000. I enjoy participating in hackathons which promote social causes so I can use my skills to 'design for good'. My passion for life, Italian food, Harry Potter and great writing is only second to my husband and my two amazing children.

THE OTHER SKETCH

Before design, I loved drawing. I started when I was 5 years old in Kindergarden, when my Catholic school teacher commissioned me to draw Mother Mary. The only resemblance was the veil.

​I kept drawing, got better and was shortlisted for Art Express in year 12, and have since been commissioned to draw large scale charcoal drawings for local churches and events. In my very rare spare time, I'll do a sketch or 2. Here are some of my favourite sketches using ink, pencil and charcoal.

I saw a fashion ad featuring a beautiful model wearing a Photoshopped dress strategically draped around her, made to look like the texture of lipstick. I thought those textures would be beautiful (and challenging) to draw, so I did using a 2B pencil and an A3 sketch pad in a 2 hour session.

My 2 favourite features to draw are eyes and lips. Here's a quick sketch of my lips with a 2B pencil on paper.

MAKEUP ARTISTRY

Another hobby I explored was makeup artistry. I became certified at the Napoleon Perdis Makeup Academy and have been fortunate enough to work with friends who happen to be photographers, stylists and hair stylists. When I create makeup looks, I focus on the eyes and enjoy enhancing an individual's natural beauty. Here are some of my favourite looks created by me.

The lights were turned off as I was doing the Allira's eye makeup. So tricky doing makeup in the dark with a lamp!

One of my favourite clients, Shobna, was in remission from cancer. I always feel so inspired when I do her makeup. Such a strong, positive and beautiful woman inside and out.
