Contemplating process (re: nail polish)


Turns out, there are a lot of ways to think about nail polish. Pouring drops on to a palette willy nilly and watching the empty space slowly begin to fill. Examining all the colors and what to use next. Where exactly to place the next dot. Well, the possibilities race through my mind. Or not. (Don't even choose. Wear a blindfold. Pre-visualize. Contemplate chance. All the many ideologies to consider.)
And when is something finished? When it feels done? When a deadline looms? When you run out of materials? Or desire?
So many questions on such a beautiful day. Makes a girl's head spin for sure.
