Skills: Character make-up, period styling, a good knowledge of history – both political and social, painting and colouration, wig application and styling (real hair and acrylic), research and character detail.
Inspiration: Siobhán takes her inspiration from the every day, the mundane and the peculiar, people watching a regularity, old family photo albums and early documentaries. She also has a keen interest in art and Independent cinema.
