One problem I run into as a "nail artist" is that is practically impossible to claim an idea as 100% my own. This is somethingI struggle with, I in no way mean to offend anyone with this statement. It is possible to come up with a new design, I am not saying it isn't. I am just saying for me, all nail art I have done may have been influenced by another artist, even without me knowing. I search pinterest daily and I might not realize that my mind saves a portion of a design and it might later show up in one of my designs.

I found a way to create a design that is 100% my own, to paint a design based on one of my original photographs. And that is exactly what I did today! This was also my first attempt at nail art like this, I have never attempted something this detailed. I will post my nails and then my inspiration.

One note on my nails, I tried to make it look like a painting and not completely "solid" if that makes any sense.

Anywhoo, here they are!

I completely agree it's so hard to paint original designs, I have a rubbish imagination so I tend to use a lot of pictures off the Internet, Your idea is really good for painting Your own designs :) Your nails are really good I love the blues so pretty :)

It's a great job Taylor! A positive a criticism would be using a smaller brush next time, it helps tons!
