An exercise for my brilliant e-course, The Art and Business of Surface Pattern Design - having some fun with nail art. I hadn't realised how much intricate and crazy and lovely art there was out there for the ultra-manicured set, till I did a google search. I am now in a state of stupefied silence (typing doesn't count).
I had a try at playing with some nail designs myself, but they all seem pretty timid in comparison to what I've just seen. Still, this is about as wild as I'm willing to go for the moment ... here's a peek:
Nowadays, painting a coat of clear polish onto my nails is pretty much a huge event in my life, so anything more than one shade of any colour is pretty much beyond me. Hats off to those who adorn their fingers in such a gorgeous way, and if any of you have amazing designs to show off please do send me some pics, as I'd love to see them! I'm off now to give myself a much-needed manicure ... cheers.
