Ladies!: Who doesn't want to get pampered, with a new hair-style, shoes, and NAILS?! How about nails with your favorite "thing" painted all over them? We had the pleasure of interviewing YouTube, internet phenom, and teacher, Robin Moses of Robin Moses Nail Art. Read below how she took us for a journey through her world:
RM: I do not believe I am separated. I believe we are all one and that I have no competition. If someone is competing with me, they are not focusing on themselves and what they have to offer. I have never competed and I don't believe in competitions. I don't think one persons art is better than another's and I cannot judge another man. I can teach what "I" have learned on "my" path only. What everyone else is doing is not what I think about.
RM: I am working on 3 separate projects aside from youtube that I am very very excited about. If all goes well, It will help make MY job AND what I teach so much easier. It has never been done before and I am finding funding to back my visions now. So far, many are involved and I am so excited for this year. Thank you for your wonderful questions....This has been a fun article to do!
MP: How long have you been doing nails and when did you get started?
RM: I have been doing nails for 24 years now. I got started after I decided I was on the wrong path and decided to learn a trade that interested me, by total accident.
MP: Your name, Robin Moses Nail Art, did you come up with that, or did a family member, friend or client suggest that?
RM: I wanted my name to be in my title because I want to be a teacher, not a blogger who shows their work. I believe blogging is important and wonderful, but I do this ONLY to teach others.
MP: The nail industry, is very competitive, what separates you from your competitors?
RM: I do not believe I am separated. I believe we are all one and that I have no competition. If someone is competing with me, they are not focusing on themselves and what they have to offer. I have never competed and I don't believe in competitions. I don't think one persons art is better than another's and I cannot judge another man. I can teach what "I" have learned on "my" path only. What everyone else is doing is not what I think about. MP: What is your favorite part of owning and operating your own business?
RM: I can wear my pajamas to work, I can cuss, scream, do laundry, dance, watch stories, movies, listen to new music, whatever I want while I am at work.
MP: We see that you are a youtube phenom, with over 87,000 subscribers, and over 15 MILLION views! That's incredible! What made you start taking the nail art to the tube?
RM: Thank you! I came online JUST to make YouTube videos and teach my art to the next generation. For 20 years I have worked alone in a room by myself. I have never had a vacation, I have never gone and visited anywhere really and I wanted to GIVE my teachings in return for others spreading the word of my name so that I can make extra money on Youtube and free-up time to paint canvas (my first dream that I gave up on when I was very young because I was on the wrong path) and to travel and teach art both on YouTube and in seminars for the future. (I am hoping with people like you this can happen for me......and for others looking to learn art).
MP: Have you worked with any prestigious names so far? If so, who?
RM: Too many to list. I don't like to talk about that. I am a private person and I respect their privacy as well. I will say that my clients are VERY colorful and wonderful people with great backgrounds and stories that you would NOT expect. LOL.
MP: Anything new/exciting coming up in 2013 that The MC Magazine can get an exclusive sneak about?
RM: I am working on 3 separate projects aside from youtube that I am very very excited about. If all goes well, It will help make MY job AND what I teach so much easier. It has never been done before and I am finding funding to back my visions now. So far, many are involved and I am so excited for this year. Thank you for your wonderful questions....This has been a fun article to do! Thank you so much, Robin!
