“Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
nothing is going to get better. It’s not.”

I saw that the site was getting a lot of traffic to the One Fish, Two Fish Nails this weekend so figured I’d throw another Seuss favorite onto the fire with a Lorax inspired mani.  The Lorax himself gave me a little trouble (the yellow acrylic tones I have just do NOT want to go over black without a ton of work) but the rest was actually pretty easy, what with the lines not needing to be any particular way.

Seriously, give it a shot: first put down the black outline for the line between the grass/sky/water and any black tree trunks.  Then you fill in the grass/sky/water with green and blue (it’s ok to go over the black a little, in fact you want to since it’ll make the line even more thin), go back in with your black to create little round swooshy blobs for the trees and shrubs, and finish it by filling in the remaining colors (and of course touch up any black at the end, adding some extra whiskery swooshes over the puffs).

Ok, that was a lot of words, but no foolin’, those fingers didn’t take forever… and you kinda can’t mess it up!
