New Designs

I'm super exhausted this week working on new designs, but enjoying every moment of it! It's such a joy working with my hand models and my sis has been such a great help and motivation in translating these work into pictures. Here's a sneak peek of some of it taken with my own digital camera, I'm too excited to share this on my blog and I can't wait for the actual pictures to be poster ready :)

Creativity is flowing

I've redecorated my nail studio, cleared up heaps of nail stuff that I've bought and collected over the years and received some more new collections of colors and great stuff. I'm very excited to work on more new, radical designs and in the midst of working on a nail design book with my good friend Viv Simmonds. It's due to be released in September, hopefully !

Trying Out New Stuff & Techniques

I can't help getting bored so quickly with available nail designs, I guess it's a good thing because it pushes me off any limits as to what you can create with all the cool nail stuff out in the market. I think that nail artists these days are so priviledged as there are tons of products out there that you can use to your full advantage. Most importantly, one must not be afraid to step out of the box and try new stuff, you'll be surprised with the results.

Mixed Media Fantasy 3D Class, Malaysia 2009

I had a great time working in a class with these amazing techs from Johor, Malaysia. These creations were the finished product of the 2day hands-on class by these techs, each created by a different person. Great work guys !

Time for some Gel Practise !

I've been playing with acrylic nails so much that the HRTE class got me practising with gels again. Being in classes with all different nail techs around the world keeps me inspired and constantly grow as a nail artist. I love my job !

Blingin Out Nail Accessories

Been fascinated with tattoo nails and now it has gone beyond that ! I'm blingin my nail accessories out with tattoo themes to match my nails. This is my plain ol' nail dusting brush and it's a combination of handpaint, 3D acrylic, crystals and gel.

Lace Up Stilletos

Sexy lace stilletos is what I'm into at the moment, I'm wearing it sleeker, thinner and sharper.

Koi Tattoo Nails

These nails are inspired by koi fish tattoos. I love tattoo arts but I guess I will never have the guts to get them on my skin, so having it on the nails ain't such a bad idea !
