Hello lovelies!

It's time for another Tri-Polish Challenge post and I don't have an intro today so....

Yesterday's nail art was mostly triangles and today's is mostly rectangles....shapes are cool, I guess?

Here's what I used:

This month's colors still aren't winning me over. I feel like this design belongs on a carpet in an Elementary school classroom...which I guess is kind of fitting as these are a recreation of this painting that was used to teach Kindergarteners....so I guess it works, NAILED IT! (All pun intended)! (;

These nails started with 3 coats of My Vampire Is Buff and a layer of HK Girl. Then using a small detail brush, I painted on the rectangle shapes using the other polishes shown above. When those had dried, I used a striping brush and the black acrylic paint to add the lines. Everything was sealed in another layer of HK Girl.

The original painting kind of reminded me of a kind of deconstructed Mondrian painting which is pretty neat! I still think it belongs on a carpet in an classroom but you know, it's alright, this one's for the kids haha. 

Make sure to check below for more primary colored nails and thanks for reading guys!
