August Nail Artist of the Month: Taylor T Nails!
9:00:00 AMGood morning polished world! Happy August! Since this is the first nail art post of the month, you know what that means! That's right, it's time to introduce you to another Nail Artist of the Month! I had such a difficult time picking an artist this month because there are just so many amazing girls!
I'm very pleased today to introduce you to Taylor of Taylor T Nails (or Nails by Taylor T on Facebook). I found her Instagram after a tutorial of hers was posted on one of the many nail feature accounts I follow. I couldn't get over how amazingly detailed her work was and had to reach out to her for the feature.
Enough of my babbling, time to let Taylor take over the blog!
To tell you a bit about my history with nail art, it all began in Summer 2012 when I had tons of free time and a liking for nail polish. I started out with YouTube tutorials and Pinterest inspiration and went from there. The following summer I created my Instagram account and the rest is history! I now do nail art out of my apartment as a side business and am very active on Instagram. As for my style and influences, I get inspiration from anywhere, whether it's a colorful building, a random home decor item, or a printed dress. My style is very wide ranging and I try to keep it diverse by constantly switching up color combos and techniques.
For this mani, I took inspiration from 1960s pop art. I've always loved Andy Warhol's work and it was a lot of fun trying to recreate it on my nails! I used nail polish (mostly random ones I've found during my current vacation in Paraguay) only for the background of each nail; the rest is all acrylic paint!
Materials used:
Unnamed- Carey (blue)
French White Creme- Wet n Wild (white)
Unnamed- Fly Color (neon green)
Unnamed- Fly Color (purple)
Acrylic paints

I hope y'all enjoyed this mani! Big thanks to Alaina for inviting me to do this post. Also, come say hi! I'm on Facebook (Nails by Taylor T.) and Instagram (@taylortnails).
