31DC2013: Day 27 - Inspired by artwork

Hi guys, I'm still battling through the challenge and I'm nearly there. So close!! Today's nail art is inspired by Coplu, specifically this painting. I really liked the heart balloons and the night sky so that it was. I have to say I don't know much about the artist but I'm looking forward to finding out more in the future!!

Clearly I didn't follow the colour scheme exactly (from the picture I was using I couldn't see the orange and I'm like aw man eyesight failure). But otherwise I really like it, those balloons are cool. I should find some in real life. Of course I love that holographic glitter and that cool conductor just casually conducting those balloons ;) I gave him a bit of depth and I really like that too. But this is once of those occasions that I think the design looks better in real life.

Blue base: Kiko - 265, w7 - Polar Bare, Nails Inc - Abbey Road and OPI - Get Your Number
Ok the base was a complicated process, I definitely wanted a dark blue but my Barry M one is extremely gloopy so I went for the Kiko polish. Which I forgot how dark it was (it's almost black) so I added a coat of Polar Bare thinking it would lighten it but it didn't really. Just made it frosty and more grey :/ I tried to do a glitter gradient with Abbey Road but in general it didn't look right. So I just jammed the Get Your Number on and oh my goodness Get Your Number looks AMAZING over a darker base. That's the way to make this polish amazing, the holographic glitter just comes out and add the topcoat, you know what happens ;) The part with Abbey Road under is slightly lighter, but slighter is the way to describe that. But the base outcome was worth it, I keep staring at that holographic glitter!! I'm glad I've found ways to incorporate textures into my nail art!!
Peach: w7 - Linen, w7 - Sheer Peach and Paris Collection - Brown Beaute (for the depth, but it's totally not brown)
White (also as a base for the balloons): Lovely Me:Ex - White
Black: Lovely Me:Ex - Black
Brown: w7 - Brownie
Yellow: Rimmel - Sunshine
Red: Essie - E-Nuff Is E-Nuff
Green: OPI - Jade Is The New Black
Blue: Revlon - Dreamer 
Pink: The Face Shop - PK105


Thank you very much for reading and I hope you have a really great day!! :D
