High Noon Creations

For those of you that do not know the artist and creator of the products of High Noon Creations, She was a contestant of season two of the long running show on the SyFy channel called Face/Off.
Her name is Heather Henry.
Much like so many of the talented artist that make it on to the show, they are all in the business of transforming people into something totally different. Heather is no different. Heather is the creator and owner of High Noon Creations.


Heather did some make up at the 2015 Transworld show in St Louis called Wild West Medusa. The world on it is wonderful. I was lucky enough to get a quick picture of it as the model Breanna Cooke.

I have the opportunity to ask Heather some questions before the TransWorld show regarding her work in the haunt industry.

Here are a few questions that I have prepared for her to answer.

1.    With your growing success in the TV and film industry, why do you continue to costume related art link masks and Halloween related projects?

I've been working in tv and film for about 14 years now.  After the writers' strike, I began to diversify.  I started making masks for fun about 5 years ago, and I really enjoy it. Now I split my time between working on set and making masks. I like both too much to quit either.

2.    You have several types of masks that you sell on your website, which do you enjoy painting more?

I enjoy creating new pieces, but most of my time is spent working on filling orders.  Painting new things for the first time is my favorite part of the process, but I also always love to paint the Medusa headdresses.  This year's TransWorld will be the first time they are available for purchase. (I've redesigned them to be more wearable.)

3.    Are you unveiling a new masterpiece at TransWorld this year?

This year at TransWorld,  I won't be selling as many bodies as I have in the past to make room for all of the new pieces.  I'm pretty excited to debut the new stuff!  I'll be selling a few things I've never seen anyone else do before, and I think haunters are going to love them.

4.    Concerning your animal masks, how you get them to look so real with laying the hair so perfectly?

I spend a lot of time creating the animal masks.  I use patterns to attach the bulk of the hair. Then I do fur transfers and flocking to finish them off.  It's time-consuming and messy, but it really makes all the difference!

5.    What type of advice do you have for people that want to get into the business of making haunted house style masks?

As far as advice for others, I'm not sure I'm qualified!  I just make things I want to see, and other people seem to like them.  For me, a business just kind of happened naturally. I could probably grow my business faster, but I really just do it because I enjoy it.  So I guess my advice would be to create masks because it's what you love to do. Try to come up with new designs, and with luck and persistence, the business will follow.

Her answers where very interesting and insightful.
I look forward to meeting her at TransWorld and to see her "Family Friendly" pieces. I will post pictures of what she has on her table. She does some amazing work and the pictures can not do them justice. Can not wait to try them all on with several pictures.
So please check back later.
