Alice Through the Looking Glass nail art design tutorial "through the looking glass" "alice in wonderland nail art" "alice nails" "wonderland nails"

 
Here is an alice in wonderland, or 'alice through the looking glass' nail design tutorial that is complete. over 15 minutes and as much detail as i could pack in there. here you will learn to paint faces, account for size ratios, color combinations while perfecting roses AND cherry blossoms. i think tim burtons idea of interweaving these mainstays together in this palette was so inspiring i HAD to paint it again. here is the first one.
 
 Alice in Wonderland Nail Art Design Tutorial
in this alice in wonderland nail tutorial i go more into detail about how to get it to look as much as helena bonham carter as possible and focused on pattern more than color. to me they are equally cool but this design is much harder as the faces as so tiny they fit on a pencils eraser.
 
 
When I first started youtube, I had put up some old designs I did to showcase my work before I could begin trying to learn to film. this design was 'stolen' immediately by a big youtuber and i realized that i would have to do this for the love of art, not for the love of some people. the last cheshire cat you see i did in 2004. both simple and beautiful, i can see why she was stolen. now, i let all of my art be taken for free in exchange for saying 'inspired by robin moses' because the alice nails being taken hurt me. i saw that art was to inspire not hurt and i began my journey. i felt i had to say that if you feel your art is taken a lot. mine is too. i understand but i go on because i love teaching, i love what you guys show me and i love my job and i want to give THAT as a way to show you its more then being "popular" and having your polish "cute", its about self discovery, challenges, overcoming the fear of not being good enough and maintaining self confidence at the lowest of times. if i didnt continue with youtube, i could never have met all of you guys and never helped so many all over the world. for that, i say thank you to every step of this journey and see you back through the looking glass!
 
love,

Spring Owl Nail Art design Tutorial "owl nails" "owl nail art" "owl design" "how to paint owls"

 DIY Easy OWL Nails | Cute Spring Nail Art Design Tutorial
Here are many owl nail art designs for any time of the year. Both frightening and cute as can be, you can learn to paint owls and have fun doing it! I used Swarovski's new Pixie dust crystal. It is a mash of smashed crystals and clear round crystal balls that are smaller than microbeads that catch light for 40.00 a bottle. A high pricetag and I don't recommend buying a full bottle UNLESS you are a hardcore gem user and then I think this should be in your collection as the crushed bits of crystal catch light like no other crystal I have used. However, the clear round pieces go clear with regular topcoat and loose luster, which is fine for things where you need pop without using a big heavy stone. This adornment is perfect for weddings or events where you want to cast light without being garish.. .. On a owls belly? Yes, please! Have fun painting owl nail art on your fingers and give a hoot, spread the word.
