Week 4 Mabs Drawlloween Nail Art: Bigfoot

Greetings, dear readers! I hope this post finds you well and you enjoyed a relaxing weekend! It was a busy one around here and I felt like I was going nonstop, and yet I don't think I have much to show for it. I'm finding myself pulled in several directions right now, and as much as I am trying to do it all, I'm exhausted and overwhelmed a lot of the time lately. Part of me thinks it is silly to have nail art in my priority list when there are other more "important" things I need to do, but creating nail art, especially for my favorite holiday, helps to calm the crazy in my head. Painting is one of the few activities where I can focus entirely on the task in front of me and wow, is it nice to not have a care in the world for that short time!

I'm back with the fourth and final nail art design for the weekly #MabsDrawlloweenClub2020 challenge! The prompt for Week 4 is "Cryptid", and my mind went immediately to the beloved fury humanoid, Bigfoot! I have never encountered anything resembling Sasquatch, but I do believe his existence is entirely possible. I may have hung up my lab coat for the past several years, but science has taught me that we know so little about our planet. Healthy skepticism is still a large part of who I am, so I cannot say for certain whether or not Bigfoot actually does exist. Now the Loch Ness Monster, on the other hand, I have very set feelings after a childhood experience, but that's a story for another post. On to the Bigfoot nails!

I would have thought designing nails inspired by Bigfoot to be difficult, but this design came together immediately. I took inspiration from a Halloween painting I created last year on canvas and went with a green forest with an eerie glow.

Products used:

I adore these nails, and I love that it is something different than my usual Halloween looks. I really enjoy this challenge as it has made me come up with looks that are different for me; here's hoping I can participate in next year's challenge and create a new nail art design every three or so days!
