Hi guys! Here we have Day 2 of Book Week, and I am featuring Matilda, by Roald Dahl. Roald Dahl was one of my absolute favorite authors when I was younger. I devoured his books like nobody's business. Matilda was a great one, and since she loved books, how could she not be a feature during book week?
The base for this mani is two coats of Orly Lemonade. Everything else was done freehand with acrylic paints and a small nail art brush.
I intended for this to look like Matilda was standing with a cloud of levitating books hovering around her, so I hope that comes across!
I'm debating on doing another Roald Dahl mani for this week as well, since I just loved his books so much!
This is adorable! You did such a good job drawing the books!
