exam art-flowers

These are the results of my hard work in preparation for my first nail art exam!

Drawing flowers--flowers in general, really-- have never been my thing, but I'm being forced to draw them, as that is the theme for the art part of my upcoming exam in April. Thanks to the assignment, I can cook up something quite extraordinary in just under 10 minutes. (the limit for how long we're allowed to spend on painting during the test)

best afternoon tea ever!

Probably the most luxurious (and expensive!) afternoon tea I've ever had! The fact that it was on the 28th floor meant that the view was just as awesome!

Red has been my favorite color for as long as I can remember, but thanks to my upcoming nail art exam, I may start developing a phobia for the color! I need to complete several steps (removing cuticles, filing, painting, and art) in a set time, and the nail polish's color is set on red. I've already used up over half of the bottle I just opened with all the practice I've been doing, and it's driving me up the wall! I better pass the test, or I may as well just.... I dunno... die.

Blue Butterfly

Great fun, as always! 

I do think this needs a few more colors to it, but I was feeling lazy, and honestly just wanted to practice holding my tiny brushes steady, and getting used to them.

dragon nail art

 Thought I'd spice things up a bit! Black acrylic art over pale pink nail polish.

 It works just fine for me!

black and silver

Thanks, Aich, for the beautiful silver nail polish! 

Black, silver nail polish with acrylic madness with silver stones!
