NAGG - Day 8: Still Life

Nothing to Disclose 

Ahh, you guys! I've been so busy! I'm sorry I've been so sporadic in my posting and that I always seem to be behind. Sometimes I like to take on too many things and then wonder why I'm so tired and don't have time ;) I'm slowly catching up with the NAGG challenge (Mireia has been kicking some booty with her looks!) and today is all about Still Life! 

One of the first images that pops up when you type "Still Life" into google is this FANTASTIC painting by Paul Cezanne and I just love it. So much. That page has been sitting open on my computer for a week and every day I've been wanting to do it. So, I finally made it happen tonight! 

The Digital Dozen does Black & White - Day 4: Middle Eastern Themed

So I will preface this post with an apology! I am the tiniest bit in love with this manicure and I couldn't narrow down my photos to just a few...so this is a picture heavy post! ;) 

This is my 4th mani for the black and white theme and I was feeling really uninspired and a bit discouraged when I sat down to do something. I did 2 looks before this and was about to call it quits but knew I'd be hurting the rest of the week if I didn't get it done tonight. I received a random catalogue in the mail and saw this wonderful rug and decided to be inspired by it! I'm really glad I went for it though because I'm really proud that they came out as clean as they did and I may force random strangers to look at them throughout the day tomorrow. Sometimes I have a heavy hand when it comes to free handing things like this and my lines get too thick way too quickly, but I think I managed to maintain some line weight consistency throughout each nail.
