Nail art inspirisan japanskom trešnjom - sakura / Nail art inspired by japanese cherry blossom - Sakura nail art design

SRB:
Prvi dan proleća, neka nam je dobrodošlo!

Za ovaj nail art inspiraciju sam našla u trešnjinom cvetu.
Iako trešnja raste svuda po severnoj hemisferi,uvek nas prvo asocira na Japan gde se smatra nacionalnim cvetom. Simbolizuje prolaznost što se smatra budističkim uticajem i deo je MONO NO AWARE koncepta - odnosno svesti o prolaznosti, empatskom stavu prema svemu.

Japanci imaju običaj da proslavljaju cvetanje trešnje organizovanjem piknika ispod trešnjevog drveta. Taj običaj se zove HANAMI , a naziv za trešnju je SAKURA. Isprva ovaj običaj je u prošlosti bio rezervisan za elitu, a danas je široko rasprostranjen i praktikuju ga svi.

Cvetanje trešnje u Japanu počinje u januaru i to u Okinavi,a Kjoto i Tokio ga dočekuju u martu i aprilu, dok do Hokaida stiže par nedelja kasnije.

za ovaj nail art dizajn sam uradila provo gradijant na svojim prirodnim noktima a onda sam crtala sve slobodnom rukom.

KORISTILA SAM:

Lak za nokte  Golden Rose Color Expert No. 56 svetlo plavi
                       Golden Rose Color Expert No. 63 svetlo zeleni
                       Golden Rose Color Rich No. 74 tirkizni
                       Golden Rose Color Expert Color Rich No.114 braon
Akrilne boje MARABU Basic Acryl - White
                                        Decormatt Magenta No. 014
NAČIN RADA:

Na nokte sam nanela svetlo plavi lak, kao srednju nijansu za gradijant manikir. Kada se dobro osušio, na sunđerčić sam nanela tirkizni, svetlo plavi i zeleni lak i tapkanjem nanela na nokat. 

Ponovila sam ovo 2-3 puta dok nisam dobila zadovoljavajući intenzitet boja kao i prelaze između njih.
Zelena boja je uz zanoktice, svetlo plava u sredini, a tirkizna pri vrhu nokta kao nebo.

Kada se gradijent osušio tankom četkicom sam nacrtala grane trešnjinog drveta i stablo.Lak sam nakapala na alu foliju i razredila ga acetonom čistim kako bih lakše crtala.
Belom i roza akrilnom bojom sam uradila cvetove trešnje.
Dizajn sam završila sa Matte Top Coat.

The first day of spring! It is good it's finally arrived!
For this nail art design i've found inspiration in cherry blossom. Thus cherry grows all over the Northen  hemsphere, it is considered the national flower of Japan.

It symbolizes the ephemeral nature of life, an aspect of japanese cultural tradiotion that is often associated with Buddhist influence and wich is embodied in the concept of MONO NO AWARE - or emphaty toward things or sensitivity to ephemera or impermanence.

Hanami is the century old practice of pickning under a blooming sakura tree. it was originally limited to the elite of the imperial court, but soon spread to samurai society and to the commmon people as well.

Hanami festival celebrates the beauty of the cherry blossom.
The blossoming begins in Okinawa in January and reaches Kyoto and Tokyo at the end of March or the beginning of April  and in Hokkaido it arrives few weeks later.

For this nail art I've first done the gradiant  manicure on my natural nails.

I USED
Nail Polishes: Golden Rose Color Expert No. 56 light blue
                       Golden Rose Color Expert No. 63 light green
                       Golden Rose Color Rich No. 74 cyan
                       Golden Rose Color Expert Color Rich No.114 brown

Acrylic paints MARABU: Basic Acryl - White
                                           Decormatt Magenta No. 014


HOW TO DO IT:
First apply to all nails light blue polish. It is the base for the gradiant manicure and the middle shade of it.
When it is completely dry
take a piece of sponge and apply a cyan, light blue and light green polish on it. Dab it on the nail.

Repeat 2-3 times until you are satisfied with the intensity of the color and with the transitions of them.

When it is dry use brown color to draw a cherry tree and branches and with white and magenta draw the blossoms.
Top everything with matte top coat.
