Crazy dots autumn skittlette manicure or Rodger Schultz vision of Jackson Pollock on Prozac... in brown

Few months ago I found some paintings of Rodger Schultz, a professional visual fine artist from Washington D.C., working under the pen name "RAS." 
I got the inspiration for this manicure when I saw his collection JPOP/Jackson Pollock on Prozac, "a whimsical and tedious take on how Jackson Pollock would have painted if they had Prozac in the 1940's" :-)

I hope you like it! :-)

  4. Hi Tanja,
    Beautiful pattern, it must take a lot of time to do all these dots.

    1. Grazie, Simona! :-) Prima ho fatto questa versione marrone solo su 2 unghie, poi mi sono sbizzarrita e la versione blu l'ho fatta su tutte le unghie! :-)

  8. This is gorgeous. Any chance of a step-by-step tutorial, please, and could you tell me where I can buy these nail polishes that you used?

    1. Thank you, Christine! :-) I don't have as much free time as I would like, so until now I haven't made any tutorial, but I hope in future I will :-)
      To get this look, basically, after putting the base nail polish in some light colour, you draw big dots (using dotting tools or using nail art brushes) in dark colour and then you just continue drawing always smaller dots in big dots, alternating dark and light colours :-)

      As you are "new" in nail art world and if you still haven't got dotting tools, I can recommend you Born Pretty Store dotting tool sets: http://www.bornprettystore.com/2way-dotting-marbleizing-tool-nail-paint-p-515.html or http://www.bornprettystore.com/pink-dotting-marbleizing-tool-nail-p-442.html, they are very affordable and they work perfectly :-)

      Kiko is an italian brand of nail polishes, as I live in Italy I buy them in my local Kiko nail polish and cosmetic store, I really don't know where you can buy them in Tasmania/Australia, there could be some international seller that works with Kiko :-)
