Kenny Vo (Richmond, VA) creates a 3-D design on a single nail tip using a variety of nail products based on a "music" theme.
"I listen to and appreciate all types of music, but it is rave music in particular, that inspires me the most. For me, rave transcends beats, notes, lyrics and instruments; it is an otherworldly force of immense energy that brings people together in unison and synergy. I wanted to create a nail tip that epitomizes rave as a whole, from the physical and visual effects, to the more spiritual and indescribable emotions that are felt. I have therefore created a bright, colorful and vibrant 3D flower, with each petal having a different color, and I have adorned the nail tip with crystals and colored studs."
