District Three: Technology

Panem is one of the most advanced nations in mankind's history, thanks to the efforts of District 3. Its computers keep us all connected and its electronic gadgets keep us all entertained.


Today's nail art is inspired by District Three.  District Three's industry is technology and known tributes include Beetee and Wiress.  The tributes from this district also play a rather large part in the unfolding of the book series.  They are great with technology and electricity.  The China Glaze color for this district is Riveting which is a stunning glass flecked orange.  I'm not a big orange person myself; I love the color but it just doesn't flatter me.  This one doesn't make my skin look TOO awful though!  I was a little stumped on where to go with this art.  Technology can mean so many things and go in so many directions, but I decided to go simple.  I used China Glaze Stone Cold to stamp some circles on it so that it would look like a fancy grid or gadget screen.  And I left the stamped parts matte to add to the dimension.  It almost looks like it's glowing, no?
