I'm Kalen, and I'm currently a sophomore in college studying Psychology and French. I started being really interested in nail art in October 2010, and it's just snowballed since then. Here's a picture of one of the first manis I ever attempted...
March, 2011
You can see how I had never really heard of a bottle hold or cleanup or anything really... I just liked to paint and do art and not really care about anything else. I just kind of did stuff on my own. But then, I started noticing a lot of really awesome blogs of women who post some really amazing work. I started caring more and more about the health and care of my nails outside just doing nail art. I also became more and more addicted to polish! I had no idea how many awesome brands and kinds of lacquers there are out there. I'm really glad I got into when I did, especially with all the amazing frankens and indie brands that are stealing the spotlight.
So, with all of this exposure to the world of nail polish and nail art, I would like to think I've grown a lot. Here's the mani I'm sporting now for Valentine's Day.

ReplyDeleteWelcome to the blogging world!
I like your funky style and you definitely have skills. When I do freehand it looks like I just spilled nailpolish creating a mess. To me, the important thing is not necessarily to be a pro in this or that; but to love, enjoy what you do and have your own style; so readers can identify your work.
You are my first follower! Eeeee! Thank you so much, I definitely do enjoy what I do :]
