Splatter

Splatter ili prskani manikir je tema za ovu nedelju. Ovo je tehnika koju sam dugo želela da isprobam, ali se nisam usuđivala jer sam se plašila nereda. Ispostavilo se da sam se plašila bez razloga jer nisam prskala mnogo oko šaka, mada su mi cele šake bile umazane bojom. Prvo sam mislila da ću moći da izbegnem slamčicu i uzela sam lepezastu četkicu, razredila acetonom lakove i krenula da prskam. Rezultat je bio gomila kapljica koje se razlivaju i prekrivaju cele nokte. Posle sam prešla na slamčicu i nerazređen lak i, mada krajnji proizvod nije savršen, ispao je mnogo bolje nego što sam očekivala.<

Splatter mani is the theme for this week. This is a technique I've wanted to try for a long time now, but was afraid I'd make a mess. My fear was unjustified because I didn't make much mess around my hands, but my hands were covered in paint. At first I thought I could avoid using straw and I took my fan brush, diluted the polish with pure acetone and started to sprinkle the polish. The result was nail polish droplets that spread all over my nails. I took it off and started anew with undiluted polish and plastic straw and, although the end result isn't perfect, it turned out far better than I expected.

Imala sam u glavi viziju mešavine Dekstera i Džeksona Poloka. Rezultat je više Dekster, manje Polok, ali nisam nezadovoljna. Koristila sam Don Juan 101 kao bazu i Golden Rose 262 i Golden Rose 287 za prskanje. Slike su snimljene na dnevnom svetlu. Na prvoj slci nemam nadlak, na preostalima ga imam. Poslednja slika pokazuje moju desnu ruku, koju nemam običaj da prikazujem sem kada radim neki poseban zadatak jer ja nail art ne radim samo za slikanje već ga nosim na obe ruke barem jedan ceo dan.

What I had in mind was Dexter meets Jackson Pollock kind of nail art. The final result is more Dexter, less Pollock, but I'm not unhappy with it. I used Don Juan 101 for base and Golden Rose 262 and Golden Rose 287 for splatter. Photos were taken in daylight. I don't have top coat in the first photo, and I have it in the other pics. The last photo is of my right hand, which I only show when I do nail art because I don't do nail art only on my swatching hand and for taking photos but I do full mani and I wear it for at least a day.
