Tarot Card: The Sun

I have so much respect for artists that manage to get through the whole tarot deck. I’ve seen several try and even finishing a set of the 22 major arcana cards is a huge accomplishment. They have so much symbolism associated with them that if you’re doing it right, just Read More

The title of the post is the name of the prompt I painted for. So I’m not being very imaginative there, but I do think I’m improving on the think out of the box thing. Because if I’d painted this a few years ago it would have been some trees Read More

I don’t know why my Star Wars nail art always turn out very simple. Possibly I’m holding back in case someone is looking for inspiration to paint their own Star Wars mani. It wouldn’t be much help if it was impossible to repeat. So here I am with five stamping Read More

I seem to have a thing for cats in space and I have been led there happily by stamping plate designers. Along with the stamping plates from the June ManixMe box, we already had Born Pretty’s Outer Space XL 1 & 2, Creative Shop 191, Moyou London’s Crazy Cat Lady Read More

Le Petit Prince

I did take French when I was in public school, but I never went very far with it so I never had to read Le Petit Prince on its original language. Instead, I read it on my own in English and loved it. In many ways, the fox’s words to Read More
