is it okay if i copy robins work?

hello nail art army!!!!! as you know i am new to youtube but experienced in nail art. i would like to briefly say something that i would love for you guys to read that has been on my mind. that is what blogs are for right??? hahahahahah!!!

when i decided to put up my nail art and document my life, MANY people said: "robin, why would you give your art away? that is so wrong! that is so stupid! that is so dumb! etc.

BUT..............i believe this. MOST PEOPLE ARE GOOD.  i am giving my art to you. i want to teach young people who want to learn and older people who wanted to learn but didnt have time, people interested but cant afford to take classes etc.........i want to give that, and in return........i want them/YOU/everyone watching....... to give my name out. and if you see nails out there of someone copying my work and not giving my name out, i want you guys to go behind them and say "you got that from robinmoses.com youtubes".......not in a bad way...(as i am giving it to them,) but in a way that just allows others to say...ah, who is robinmoses.com? and they are led to my sight.......that does not take away from another persons art, but leaves us BOTH winners...........MOST IMPORTANTLY.....if we do it that way, my art isnt watered down and lost in this sea of designs and people wanting to learn wont get lost and never learn....

...it must have a source...and if you guys do that for me, i will become a solid name and source for people who want to learn.... and when i do become a source of teaching, that will lead me to my dream-----which is to just teach online ALWAYS and paint paintings for galleries that are shown all over the world. it is very important to me and i believe it will happen.

thats why i am doing this. i got 10 messages this week asking WHY i am doing this.....and i believe it is a new way............to give completely....what comes back in return is so many wonderful people have made me believe i am 100% right.....so, i thought i would share.....that is what a blog is for i think....but since i am new to blogging...that is what MY blog is for at least :) hahahahahaha

much love, pass my name, link my name to things you see of mine NOT linked to my name and enjoy my art and have fun and learn and enjoy the creations you manifest for yourself and others :)

love and respect,
robin

Rock on


Hello everybody, for today a silver mani.
I'm really loving this edgy mani, I like the grungy look to it. I used Millenium for the stripes and the background color is a dark silver foil from Hema, a local store.
This is another tape mani and it was supposed to be a regular triangle mani like I did before. But as I was taping my first hand in the usual, same pattern, I thought it would look cooler if I just placed the tape randomly on the nails. The result is visible on my right hand in the picture below. I like it a lot more than my left, it's more dynamic, not so predictable. Do you like this rockin' mani as much as I do?

Strawberry Clover checkered mani


Hello there! First I want to say that I got the idea for a checkered mani from the talented Erika. She's done many beautiful checkered manis on her blog and everytime I saw pictures of them I couldn't stop staring, so now I've finally made my own!
The colors I used are both from China Glaze, that's Strawberry Fields and Four Leaf Clover. I just love the funky combo of bright pink and turquoise :) Also the gold shimmer in Strawberry Fields gives the whole a bit more depth. The checkers are made by placing strips of tape on the base color (in this case the pink), after that I applied Four Leaf Clover and then topped it with a coat of Seche Vite.
I really like the look and it's quite easy to achieve, so you might expect more of them in the future ;)


Retro futuristic French


Hi everyone! Today's mani is an unusual French manicure.
The silver I used is Millenium from the China Glaze Khrome collection, the blue is from a brand named KBY, I bought it in Hong Kong where they have so many choice when it comes to nailpolish brands! The metallic silver and intense blue tips make it a very futuristic, spacy look, it kind of reminds me of the Jetsons :)
And I know this look isn't the typical everyday mani, but I like it a lot. It's just so spacy and so slick!

Black and gold


For this tape mani I used China Glaze's 2030 for the base color and a regular, opaque black cream for the pattern on top of it. This look would be great for a Vegas themed party, or an Egyptian one, it almost makes me feel like I'm Cleopatra...
Anyway, let's move on to some pictures! Don't you just love the classic combo of black and gold?
