Meet the Artist Behind the Claws

I’m a published special‑effects nail artist and the founder of Onyx Nails Design, known for cinematic, character‑driven claw creations.

​

My work moves beyond traditional nail artistry, exploring structure, dimension and storytelling to create claws that function as true costume elements.

​

I’ve worked with clients across fashion, performance, editorial and character design, refining a method that turns advanced nail structure into immersive visual impact.

​

Through my training programs, I mentor artists around the world—helping them elevate their craft, command attention and build a distinctive presence in creature and fantasy nail design.

​

Because claws are not an accessory.

They are part of the character.
