Marisol Alvarado (Stockton, CA) creates a 3-D design on a single nail tip using a variety of nail products based on a "music" theme.
The first thing that entered my mind was the word music. Then visual musical notes. Music has inspired me throughout my life and my career. One of my passions is nails and I am continuously motivated by music. My family and I are all working together to reach for our goals and encouraging each other along the way. We are all on the same path in one way — chasing our dreams. The 3D hand is grasping for your dream, representing music with the 3D microphone. The cord wrapped around the microphone is in the shape of the treble clef."
