THERE are no rules with art, never be afraid to try it! Remember you can always take it off and start again. When I teach nail art, I first show how to break down the pictures, you want to recreate, into layers. Never look at the finished picture and say ‘I could never do that’, always look at the structure of the picture and ask your self ‘how did she do that’?
When doing any sort of nail art, I try to imagine all ten nails are part of my canvas and build a design. The last thing I want is for all of the nails to look identical. Let your artwork flow from one nail to another, placing the main parts of the pictures in different.

It seems it is all about colour this winter, neutral shades highlighted with bold, vibrant colour, this is perfect to create some fantastic nail designs to suit all those clients wanting to indulge their glamorous side.
Luxurious high gloss finishes with metallic and textured accents, allows that inner artist in you to truly experiment. Winter is vintage, black nails, white nails, moody blues, and charcoal greys, just remember that inner child and don’t hold back on the bold vibrant accent colours to lift your nails. Add some opulent purple or tantalizing turquoise… go on overindulge the fantasist within. Work those animal prints and tweeds and experiment with matt top coats and high gloss shines, to create a velvet and metallic effect.
Lime green is an amazing shade which I have truly fallen for, combined with natural colours and highlighted with black it can produce a surprisingly glamorous look.
The darker the better, look at some of the polish collection for this winter, to get truly inspired check out fashion magazines and study the colour combinations, a fun exercise is to choose an outfit and create a nail to match.
