Like a painter in front of a blank canvas, Tamara considers that every nail is a masterpiece to be. With a background in fashion design and visual arts, she merged both her passion and went to Asia to train as a nail artist. Back in Montreal and so deeply inspired by 3D Japanese-inspired techniques, she opened her own salon in 2009. She is known for her bold and colorful designs that can be spotted miles away. 

The artist's signature monochromatic and marbled designs have gained so much praise, Tamara now counts Celine Dion and Christina Aguilera as clients and her editorial work has been featured in Elle Canada and Harper's Bazaar Vietnam. Tamara shares her time between photoshoots, her position as educator ambassador and Grand Master for the CND brand, and her award-winning salon the Candy Nail Bar located in Montreal.
