Piet Mondrian was a Dutch painter best known for his minimalist paintings consisting of perpendicular black lines coloured in with yellow, blue and red. I didn't have a primary blue cream polish, so I improvised. With glitter. What sensible person wouldn't?
I started off with two coats of a white polish. Then, I drew horizontal and vertical perpendicular lines without any particular rhyme or reason. Next, I filled in a few of the boxes with a red or yellow cream polish or the blue glitter. The glitter was a bit messy to work with (as per usual) so I attempted to cover any blue glitters that went outside the lines with black nail art pen. Lastly, I finished everything off with a fast drying top coat.
A little word of warning, the Sally Hansen Nail Art Striper was not as thin as I expected it to be and I found the polish wasn't entirely opaque. I found that the trick to making the striper thinner lines was to apply less pressure onto the brush.
