That’s right, I’m creating handmade STRICTLY one-of-a-kind scrimshaw style artnails for the high-end nail salon market, and believe me, there’s plenty of it to go around. Nail art is more than popular — it rivals tattoos for popularity, and the FEATURE NAIL is the key to the whole thing.
Feature nails can be handpainted and sometimes you can get a fantastic nail by a total unknown artist for a fraction of what you really should pay. Oh, most folks don’t think they should pay for art — after all, isn’t art a form of play?
Many artists starve or maintain a day job just because of that attitude by frozen-faced street zombies under the usual alien domination.
Okay, so how much are they, and where can you get them???
To the nail salons at WHOLESALE, they’re $25 apiece, meaning “each” item contained in a signed & dated flip, BUT — the retail is $225, and I’ll explain why I can ask that price.
I’m not an unknown artist just starting out. I’m a very well-established LISTED American Artist. That means Art in America, Who’s Who in Art and museum collections such as the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. and the White House and Camp David, plus many heads of state around the world, and you can add to that list of collectors the Dalai Lama and King Hussein of Jordan.
So if you bought one of my smaller paintings on canvas or canvas board, how much would you expect to pay? Right. A lot more than $225, and you’d be right. My bonafide sales and official auction records show sales of single paintings in six figures, and I’m the record-holder in art sales on eBay, nobody sells more paintings at higher prices than I do.
Plus, it’s a hell of a lot harder to paint in miniature, and try painting on an ink-resistant curved acrylic nail form.
In addition, it’s all double-signed and dated, first in my handwriting on the nail itself, then again on the flip in which the nail has been sealed to protect its authenticity from being questioned.
All my artnails are in photo catalog. If you have a nail that isn’t in the catalog, it’s a fake. Don’t be fooled — buy direct from my production studio to assure quality and authenticity for your gallery or nail salon.
Yes, you can mount these in shadow-box frames, and boy, do they look incredible and the L@@K on people’s faces when they realize what they’re L@@King at!!!
One thing I’d love to do is film people reacting to the scrimshaw artnails. One exclamation in common is, “Wow, look at that DETAIL!!!” — therein lies the secret of my artnails, detail, detail, detail.
See You At The Top!!!
