a sense of style. Suppose you are one of the fortunate few, now you
are posed with a problem how do you turn your talents into
something that can sustain you Grace Emden is a Baton Rouge artist,
more specifically, a makeup artist, who specializes in special
effects makeup for the movie industry. Grace actually started out
making beautiful, high end cakes for weddings and birthday parties
and realized, after working on a movie set several years ago that
needed a fancy cake for a banquet scene, that the same skills she
applied to decorating cakes could be applied to decorating faces.
Since then, Grace and Art Gracefully have been hired for vast array
of productions and events from movies to pet portraits. Candace
