Understanding art is a complex process. A painting, for example, can appear profound to you but, for others, it may look confusing. Art also seemed elitist. Paintings and sculptures can fetch quite a hefty price tag that only a few seemed to appreciate its value. Even if I sometimes do not understand the value of a work of art, I agree to this poster:
I believe that art can be found anywhere. Oftentimes, I call a thing of beauty an art. From my point of view, beauty is art and art is beauty. That said, I still do not make an effort to do a regular beauty regimen. I read a Leonardo Da Vinci quote saying, “Simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication.” I found myself agreeing to it only to realize that I agree to it because I found an alibi to my laziness.
My cousin who is in high school was enrolled in a subject called “Beauty Care”. They were taught skills for an alternative career. She learned how to do manicure and pedicure. For the past year, my aunts and I have been abusing her skills and enjoying the luxury of getting out nails done by her (at our beck and call). Hehe! She needs to practice anyway.
She is still a beginner so I help her find manicure tips on the Internet. Judging from the different nail designs I saw, manicure has been elevated as an art form. I saw different ways for which a person can embellish the nails. I used to think having painted nails does not serve a purpose and I would rant about it. Now, I no longer rant. I understand the how nail pampering can relieve stress and make me feel better. I am currently looking at the beautiful colors available at Julep maven. These days, my nails still remained unpainted because I could not decide what color to choose! I might venture with one of those nail art one day. I am still gathering the confidence to pull it off.
I know what you mean when you say “you can’t decide what color to paint your nails”, and our nails are bare just for that reason! Haha! I am addicted to nail art and painting my nails. And yes, like you, I do have unpainted nails often because I find it so hard to decide! xD
true. there are so many options!
art is a very diverse thing and sometimes, the way we express our selves can be included as art.
true.
I don’t color my nails. I’m afraid nail polish will only destroy the original beauty of it. And I don’t wear make-up because like you I believe of Da vincis quotes. Hehe…
Nails will grow. Proper nutrition will keep it healthy. Getting a manicure is a personal preference. I also don’t wear makeup because it takes too much effort. #tamad
Yes, the nail ars I see are amazing. Some even have beads on their nails.
I’m scared looking at those nails with little dangling objects.
Art a very wide matter to be discussed and define but one thing is for sure it is present everywhere you go.
Art is subjective. Still, I am fascinated by some people’s creativity when they come up with something spectacular in all sense. Amazing! 😀
Some people are so creative that I often wish I thought of those ideas. 😀
Good luck to your cousin 🙂
even i cant decide what color to paint my nails but if theres no special occassion, i go for neutral earth tone colors 🙂
True. I once had a tan/beige nail polish.
I only have two favorite colors to paint my nails – nude or pussy red. You should try it! 🙂
Oh, red is hard to pull off. I wanted to try pink. I read somewhere that Jacqueline Kennedy said that the only color to paint the nails is pink.
I too love a good manicure. The no-fail way to make it last loegnr is toapply it with top coat every day or at least every other day. You’ll besurprised how much loegnr your mani lasts.Sincerely,Mich (Fashionista from Chicago).
