Mixed Media 3D Prehistoric

With the prehistoric theme at the Nailpro comps this year, the first thing I visualized were dinosaurs and cavemen running around and I couldn't bring myself to do a set of nails like that...lol...truth is, I don't do dinosaurs cos they're scary! I decided to work with textures and did some research on prehistoric life of the sea, land and sky and finally came up with this entry which placed 2nd in veteran.

Fantasy Nails - Psychedelic 60's

I love everything about fantasy nails except for the time involved and the tideous detailed work required in creating one. It has never been one of my favourite category because I don't enjoy working on a set of nails for days, even up to weeks before you can complete to admire the outcome. Having said that, I find myself entering this competition time and again because it challenges me to step out of my comfort zone and experiment different ideas and techniques. When there is no limit to what you can do with fantasy, that is when you can flirt with the artistic side of creativity.
