Artist Nadia Tellis Merges Makeup And Music In Alabama

By Keisa Sharpe

You could say Nadia Tellis was born to sing. Her parents, both vocalists, met at Miles College while in the choir.

So it’s completely understandable that she would be endowed with the gift of singing and songwriting. Her talents have not gone unnoticed. Not only has she created a body of work (releasing the song “Mirage” in 2016), she’s been able to work alongside some pretty well-known talent locally and nationally. Anyone remember the American Idol winner Ruben Studdard? Nadia has sung background for him and opened up for many other artists at local events.

But music is not the only talent she holds dear. Nadia discovered that she has the gift of makeup artistry as well and counts it an honor to use her hands to help women to see themselves in a new light – literally. Even though she gets requests for complete makeovers as a freelance makeup artist, Nadia says she often encourages women to allow her to highlight their natural, God-given beauty.
