I have been a Texan in the DFW area for over 30 years, with a 3 1/2 year vacation in San Diego. After receiving a BS in Biology/Chemistry from the University of North Texas, there were 9 years of medical/scientific sales and consulting. Wanting a change, I had an opportunity to be on a film set while obtaining an aestheticians license. A hidden, natural talent was exposed, and the passion exploded! My skills and experience grew quickly, and Chelsea Lee Makeup Artistry was born. I was able to add beauty and special effects makeup to feature and short films, music videos, TV shows and pilots, commercials, webisodes, and photography.

In 2014, I was the key makeup artist for the feature film OCCUPY, TEXAS directed by Jeff Barry and staring Janine Turner, Peri Gilpin, and Lorelei Linklater. In 2013, I had so much fun as the key makeup artist for MISSION AIR, directed by Mike Norris and starting GiGi Rice, Robert Rodriguez, Jamie Kennedy, and Tom Arnold. In 2011, I was the key makeup artist for the HGTV show, "Donna Decorates Dallas" and was elected as a PSA Chair Board Member for Women In Film Dallas.

As the key makeup artist for Tom Huckabee's delightful human comedy, CARRIED AWAY and Frank Mosley's HOLD, I was extremely happy to see both of these films in the 2010 Dallas International Film Festival. In fact, I had the honor of being the celebrity makeup artist for the AFI/Dallas International Film Festival from 2007 - 2013 as well as the Lone Star International Film Festival in 2007. I have and will continue to support the Texas film community and help our future film students and newcomers with short and feature films. To give back to my community, I have also volunteered at Nexus Recovery Center for Women, The American Cancer Society, and Heartland Home Health and Hospice.
