Psychedelic Swirls

I was stumped for ideas yet again but I  had time to kill last night.  After digging through Facebook, I got a little inspiration from a poster for a friend's band (pictures are at the bottom of this post)
.
I did these entirely with acrylic paints (except for a plain base coat).  I had to go over the white and yellow twice and that caused the edges to be a little jagged and everything is pretty bumpy overall. 

Here they are after one coat of Seche Vite:

And here they are after I decided I wasn't digging the bumpy look and added glitter to help smooth everything out and hide some of the jaggedness.  They look better in person, trust me.  The lighting in my bathroom is shite

    About Bailey

    I'm 29 years old and I just moved to New York City with my boyfriend and little monster dog.  I've been doing nail art off and on since I was a kid...that's about 17 years!  But I really got back to it about 3 years ago. 
    As you can probably tell, my inspiration comes from my love of TV shows, movies, games, and other miscellaneous pop culture.
