| updating my resume i guess |
can we talk about how difficult it is to properly photograph 3-d nail art? i've tried sunlight, ambient house-lighting, harsh bulbs, soft bulbs, and shade. i guess the only thing i haven't tried is a proper light box WHICH I'D RATHER NOT HAVE TO PURCHASE. :<
anyway, i'm teaching myself 3-d acrylic sculpting. it's something we didn't learn in class (and something my first salon was really terrible at) so once a set of 22 cnd acrylic colors practically fell into my lap, i figured it was time. day one and two of practice were pretty mediocre, but i sat down for a few hours today to really take it seriously and i think i'm definitely on my way!
it's not perfect yet, but it's only my third day, after all. i'm really quite pleased with the cat, even though he looks more like a tiger without stripes. cute though, right?
