Gooood Morning! I'm back with Day 7 of the Geometric Challenge, on time this time ladies and gents ;) Today's prompt is Polygon! There are sooo many types of polygons, but I decided to go with a hexagon theme.
Isn't this awesome?! I'm a little obsessed with using the watercolour technique lately and loved this ocean like base I came up with.
I started off with Milani White On The Spot my go to white creme and then added a coat of Seche Vite and waited until it was completely dry. Then I added dots using China Glaze Sunday Funday and China Glaze Fancy Pants from the upcoming China Glaze Avant Garde Collection coming out this March. Then using a fluffy brush and pure acetone I spread out the blues and created the watery blue base that makes me want to hit up a beach.
Once I was happy with my base I added another coat of Seche Vite then took black creme and my itty bitty cut down nail art brush and started in on my polygons. Once I finished with the black, it reminded me of fishnets! I had this idea to add overlapping white hexagons so I started in on those!
I just used white creme and the same teeny nail art brush to draw on the overlapping hexagons. I started on my index nail and I think I got better at it the more nails I did.
These took me forever and a day to do, and a tonnn of coats of Seche Vite, but HOW COOL DO THEY LOOK?! I seriously love themm :D
Which ones do you like better?! Just the black or with the white?
Make sure you check out the rest of my challenge buddies did for Polygon day!
