Maria Abreu

A recent graduated of the well respected Makeu-Up Designory School (MUD) in Burbank, California, Maria actually began her love of the arts as a child actor in film and theater in Albuquerque, New Mexico where she was born and raised. Now, after years of exploring several different disciplines in the film industry - both in front of and behind the camera - she has found her true calling in the Special Effects make-up realm where she's able to combine her natural artistic abilities, her years of experience of being on sets and up-to-date techniques to create effects with amazing results.

In just a brief time of entering into this field, Maria has already won awards for her impressive offerings as she continues to amaze with her incredible works.
