Some inspiring NAIL ART!

If you follow this blog, there should be no surprise that I love nail art.  I love creating something neat and pretty on my nails! It can make you feel happy and creative whenever you look down at your nails throughout the day! :)

Anywho, I watch this lady on youtube who posts a video a few times a week 
with different nail art tutorials and let me tell you...

...she is crazy talented!

Here is an example...

I definitely recommend checking out more of her nail designs.  
She makes it look so effortless and definitely gives me ideas for my own nails!

What's you're favorite nail design of hers?

Artist Feature! Karen Tarlton

It's been awhile since I featured someone on this blog.  I am all about supporting visual artists!

So now I am back!  In my search today, I have found this artist, Karen, on etsy.  She sells work there and this gorgeous painting...

Artist Feature: Travel Write Draw - Meagan Morrison

One thing I said I would do with this blog was feature an artist once in awhile.  So I am starting this with someone whose blog I really enjoy reading.

Meagan Morrison

Travel Write Draw

Meagan over at Travel Write Draw is an illustrator and her use of color is pretty fantastic.  I love art with color.  Color pleases the eye!  I wish i could remember how I came about her blog but I can't.  It was right around the time that I started this blog but I'm not sure how.

Check out her page for some amazing fashion illustrations and some others illustrations here.

A bit of what her blog is about ...

"I’m a firm believer that we manifest our own destinies. We owe it to ourselves, even if only in private, to answer the question of what we want to do with our lives honestly. When I ignore all the pressures and criticisms in my head, I can see clearly what I long to do. Travel Write Draw isn’t just a blog, but a way of life. For me it’s a step towards building a life that I always dreamed I would have. So that my friends is what this blog is about; my true loves. I hope to inspire you, enlighten you, and maybe help you find what you love along the way." -From Travel Write Draw first post, linked in about me section.

If you or someone you know is an artist that would like to be featured in my little blog over here send me an email over at designs.cindy@gmail.com.

stay creative.

Disney Inspired Art: A Featured Artist

screencap of artwork in article.

I love Disney.  I love art.  Recently, I found this article of an artist who combined photos of real women and Disney's [cartoon] princesses using photoshop.  This is an article that I KNEW that I had to share.

This artist, Jirka  [http://jirkavinse.wordpress.com/], has only started.  Super talented and I wish him the best.
