Kyra MacPherson is an award-winning makeup artist out of Calgary, Alberta, passionate about story telling and character development.

In 2000, a move to Texas ignited a transformation in Kyra's artistry. Amidst the Texan horizons, her painting style took a dark and surreal turn, a perfect fit for the world of cinematic horror. Her brushes became instruments of terror, proving a little too dark for local and high school art shows.

Returning to Alberta in 2011, Kyra sought new avenues for her artistic ambitions. In her mid-20s, she dived into the realm of makeup artistry with a focus in special effects and fabrication, where her talent for color, texture, and imagination found a new canvas. Her paintbrushes became makeup brushes, bringing depth and magic to the faces of actors and actresses in the world of cinema. Beyond film, she became a special effects and prosthetic educator, sharing her knowledge and nurturing the next generation of artists.

Above all, Kyra MacPherson possesses a servant's heart, believing the relationship between makeup artist and actor is sacred, deserving of the highest respect. Her journey, from the vast Alberta landscapes to the captivating Texas horizons and back, reflects the ever-evolving nature of artistry. She lives to weave an artistic tapestry, leaving an indelible mark on both canvas and face, captivating audiences and establishing herself as a notable presence in the world of film makeup artistry.
