| Nail Art by Rhonda McCarthyI am a 20-year veteran of the beauty industry. I am a licensed nail specialist as well as a NC State Board Of Cosmetic Arts approved provider of continuing education. My business Creative Concepts also offers advanced training seminars in airbrushing, hand painted nail designing and advanced acrylic application.
Rhonda has 8 nail pics on display, she has kindly sent us a selection of hand-painted nail art and airbrushed nail designs, all of which are fantastic! Pics 1 and 2 are both airbrushed designs and have been done using an Iwata airbrush coupled up with a Badger "Billionaire" Silent Compressor which allows for the operation of up to 4 guns simultaneously, a handy feture if you want to use a few brushes at the same time.

Chroma Lightning. This is a design that I created with Aeroflash By Holbein paint and Dr. Ph Martin's paint. I used white, lemon, sky, tangerine, magenta and black for the 'lightning' strike. |

Retro Air. This is a design that I created with Aeroflash By Holbein paint and an Iwata aribrush gun. I used white, lemon, peony, tangerine and purple. I added some strategically placed bubbles so that it would POP! | 
Nail Pic 3
Candy Striped. This is a hand painted design that is so sweet. I used red polish and swirled red and white acrylic paint with a striper brush. I used a nail polish brush to create the white circle. I used a stylus to create 'lil red' dots. |

Sprite. This is a hand painted design that looks tart. I used bright lemon polish and added orange and lime acrylic paint with a striper brush. I used a stylus to create lemon, lime, orange and tahitian dollops. |
Nail Pic 5
Raspberry Swirl. This is a hand painted nail design that I created in a 'whirlwind.' I used acrylic paints and a striper brush. I used the end of the striper brush handle to make large, two dimensional dots. To make the smaller dots I used a stylus. |

Pearl. I used silver polish on the nail and added white acrylic paint 'hieroglyphics.' I used a stylus to make individual dots. |

Pastel Dreams. This is a hand painted nail design that was 'swept up.' I used acrylic paints and a striper brush. I used a stylus to make double strands of dots. I made the fuschia circle with a nail polish brush |
