Panda Nails

This is a throwback design from a couple years ago. I love going to the zoo and the pandas are one of my favorite animals to see. I felt the need to paint these at the time because of Tai Shan, a giant panda. Tai Shan was the first panda to be born at the National Zoo in DC and was sent back to China in 2010.  I was so sad that he left so in honor of his departure, I painted these panda and bamboo nails!




Hope you're having a great day! :)

Spring Floral Nails

Today was such a beautiful day: sunny with a few fluffy clouds, high of 80, not humid. It's finally feeling like spring here! I wish the weather was like this all the time. As the weather is getting nicer, and finals are upon us, I am catching spring fever. I find it very difficult to study for finals this week. I just lack all motivation to do anything productive. Am I the only one who feels like this? I wanted to paint instead of study tonight so here's what I came up with: It's a floral design to celebrate the nice weather that we finally get to enjoy. I got the idea from my love of the spring trend of floral shorts (I just got a pair and I love them!).




To be honest, I did the stripes because I was too lazy to do the entire hand flowers. But I think it makes a nice balance to the busy floral.

Hope you are having a great day!
