Welcome to Streams of Whiskey!

I am going, I am going, any which way the wind may be blowing,
I am going, I am going, where streams of whiskey are flowing.

Remembrance Day 2011







































This year I divided my nails between the top and the bottom. On the right hand is the somewhat official view. Based off their military flags (according to the poster hanging on my wall) these fingers feature the modern umbrella groups of the Canadian military. On the index finger is Air Command, on the middle Land Forces Command, and on the ring Maritime Command (excluding the crown due to spacing issues). On the right is a Great War soldier's view. Based off works by my personal favourite Great War artist, Otto Dix. The image on the index is from "Storm Troops Advancing Under a Gas Attack". The middle is taken from "Transporting the Wounded in Houthulst Forest" and the ring from "Machine Gunners Advance". Poppies are on the pinky fingers. The thumbs are red, white and blue camouflage taken from the Remembrance Day mask of Carey Price.

Halloween 2011


These were my Halloween nails for 2011. My favourite was the spider on the web. On the left hand a witch, bat, spider, ghost and tombstone for Bram Stoker (1847-1912). On the right, Frankenstein, a cat, a jack-o-lantern, some mis-coloured candy corn and a tombstone for Mary Shelley (1797-1851).
