For this manicure, I was somewhat inspired by Mondrian paintings and color blocking-popular in the 60's & 70's. I don't really like how this manicure came out and I usually only post manicures that I'm proud of. But for the sake of updating & the fact that I don't know when I'll be able to update again I decided to post. I really like how all of the colors work together in this nail art, but I am not crazy about the thickness of the white line. I suppose if I really put time into this manicure it would really live up to its potential.

Hey guys,

I've seriously been lacking nail inspiration lately. Before I started this manicure, I found three colors that meshed well together & decided that I HAD to use them in my next manicure. The trouble was figuring out what to do with them. I decided to try a design that I had done a few years back, that looks like it took hours, but it is relatively easy. After the design was done, I wished the dots were in a more contrasting color because in some light they blend in.  Overall, I really like this clean, simple manicure.

Please don't mind the pictures, I had to use flash on some of them to try to show the true color
