The Unicolenicorn

The unicorn is here.

[theunicolenicorn]

Nectarine. And nails that I've had on for a week. Or two.

[theunicolenicorn]

Nails inspired by Melinda Salisbury's The Sin Eater's Daughter.

[theunicolenicorn]

Nails inspired by Jay Kristoff's Stormdancer. This has been a long time coming. I've been planning to do this for ages. It's just now when I'm planning a big move that I managed to sit myself down and paint this.

[theunicolenicorn]

3D practice. Still getting a feel for the product.

[theunicolenicorn]

Mermaid nails! This is my return to nail painting! I never actually stopped, I just took a long break because life happens y'know.

[theunicolenicorn]

Tried to do porcelain print with gel. Nice tryyyy.

[theunicolenicorn]

Paint paint paint. Inspired by Martin Fasting’s painting.

I have a few more nails to post. I haven’t been diligent about taking pictures of all of them but I have now!

[theunicolenicorn]

Nails inspired by artwork I found on the internet. If anyone knows the artist tag me so I can credit. Yas!

[theunicolenicorn]

Nails. Fine lines and flower practice. Used Gelish for this set.

Time for my 1.5k follow forever! I want to thank you all from the bottom of my heart and I love you all as much as I love my books. Ok. After much contemplation, I have decided to split my follow forever into four categories. Friends, friends I haven’t talked to in a while and would like to talk to again soon/old connections, people I want to know more about/possible friends (meaning book blogs), and noteworthy. All pretty self explanatory. The bolded urls are mutuals. Like the books we love, we each have chapters in our lives. I’m glad that my friends have made it into a chapter in the book of my life, I’m hoping to see the possible in the future, and the noteworthy are the special mentions or acknowledgements that I feel deserve recognition for their hard work and beautiful blogs. 

Without further ado, the glossary.

Just as a final note, for those who were tagged, but my url isn’t coming up in their following, its because my primary blog is darkwingedcryptic and that’s what comes up when I follow people. 

[theunicolenicorn]

Thank you so much for this. It never ceases to surprise the heck out of me when people appreciate the things I paint on my nails. You are fabulous. Thank you.

[theunicolenicorn]

Wow! Just wow! Your nail art is amazing!

Thank you so, so, so much! You rock. 😘😘

[theunicolenicorn]

Mermaid on my nail!

[theunicolenicorn]

Tiger Tiger burning bright...?

Freehand tiger yo!

[theunicolenicorn]

Nails inspired by Amanda Sun’s Rain. Can I just say that I love the Vancouver Public Library? Who needs to buy books? (I still do but not as much as I used to since moving to Vancouver.)

[theunicolenicorn]

Nails inspired by Kelley Armstrong’s Empire of Night. 

Kind of sad that the book was Moria centric. I’m a fan of Ashyn. I enjoyed it anyway, can’t wait for the next!

[theunicolenicorn]

Print practice! Fine lines. Lines, lines, lines everywhere! 

[theunicolenicorn]

Paisley/fine lines practice. Don’t know how good of a job I did. Obviously, someone needs to gift me a steadier hand.
