Starry nights...
I was having quite a boring day and I was literally staring out of the window at the night sky and my thoughts went to Van Gogh's starry nights painting and I felt I just HAD to try it on my nails!
Use a robin blue coloured nail polish as the base and don't let it dry before adding the patches of white and yellow nailpolish on it.
I added the black flame-like detail only on my ring-finger. You can make Van Gogh's signature strokes with a pin or a toothpick (the safer option) just to give that real Van Gogh effect. Try doing this before the different layers of pain dry so you end up getting a few light blue tones as well.
Cover it up with a coat of clear nail polish to seal in your design as well as to give it a smooth-ish texture!
These are the shades of blue and yellow that I used. They look quite amazing together don't they?

A Swatch of smARThistory! =)
Hey everyone!
These are my Piet Mondrian nails! I'm an architecture student so we have a little bit of art history to study! Thats what got me into doing these nails! Pretty simple and basic.
Just fill in a base coat of white with vertical and horizontal black lines placed randomly and fill some of the squares and rectangles with blue,yellow and red!
You could make this design more personal by adding in your favourite three colours or you could make it festive with red,green and gold! Have fun! =)
