A 'Bone to Pick
Thursday, September 23, 2010
Herringbone that is. Today's nail art is my interpretation of a herringbone pattern. I actually even frankened the base polish myself- it matches the wall pant of someone I know perfectly! I loved the color so much on the wall (I picked it out, natch) that I had to create a nail polish for my very own. :) I used a mixture of equal parts American Apparel Manila, American Apparel California, and a few drops of L.A. Girl Army Green.
It matched my shirt (unintentionally):
I used my franked polish, which I'm still undecided on calling, with MAC In the Buff to paint the lines to make the pattern. Topped it all off with 2 coats of Seche Vite top coat.
About the job:
I am now working for a real estate marketing company as a graphic designer! :) First day went great, other than freezing. Everyone seems really nice so far, too! :)

ReplyDeleteI just found this blog a few days ago and spent hours going through all the older entries. You seem like a fun person to know, and I love your art! My nails are a salute to you today :)
ReplyDeleteI'm looking at your blog for the first time and am enjoying ..
ReplyDeletefrom today I will follow him. My congratulations you have a lot of creativity.
Congratulations again!!!! You are so fabulously creative, we knew any company worth it's salt would hire you!!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd, your franken is a gorgeous color- looks like the harvest moon did here in the midwest a couple of days ago. In the early evening it was really large and golden (your franken color)- due in part to the sunset and the Autumnal Equinox. Then it got really bright and blue-white as the night progressed. Any name possibilities there, or is this too geeky?
And Congrats again! (Congrats to the company, too- because they got a terrific employee!!!)
October 12 is a very special day for Brazilians, is a holiday in which we are celebrating two very important dates
ReplyDelete1 - Children's day
2 - day of Our Lady of Aparecida (mother of Jesus) the patron saint of Brazil
Our Lady of Aparecida is a saint who was found at the bottom of a river by fishermen
You could do your nails on that day in tribute to Brazil?
I thank you so much
I'm sorry if there is any mistake in writing because I am using the google translator.
Please search in google images "Nossa Senhora Aparecida" and " santuario de aparecida"(the church)
thank you, thank you, thank you
Love the colors you chose for this
