Dotting tools only - Artsy Wednesday

This week’s challenge in Artsy Wednesday is a mani decorated with dotting tool/s only. You basically can paint anything with a dotting tool that you can with a brush, personally I like to use both because the brush is more willing to do some of the work for you… 
Here is by the way another dotting tool only many of mine, CLICK
Denne uges udfordring i Artsy Wednesday er en manicure dekoreret med et eller flere dotting tools. Man kan stort set male det samme med et dotting tool som man kan med en pensel. Personligt kan jeg li’ at bruge begge dele fordi penslen overtager en del af arbejdet…
Her har du forresten en tidligere dotting tool mani - klik HER
 
For me the finer details are easier obtained with a brush vs. a dotting tool, but that was a no-go in this challenge - for mig er de finere detaljer lettere at male med en pensel frem for et dottingttol, men det gik jo ikke i denne udfordring.
The base color is a neon polish, China Glaze Flying Dragon, and I painted the flowers using a dotting tool and acrylic color. The top coat is Seche Vite.
Check out what the other girls in Artsy Wednesday did in this weeks challenge

Grundfarven er en neon lak, China Glaze Flying Dragon,
og blomsterne er malet med et dotting tool og akrylfarver, toplakken er Seche Vite.

  7. Uhadada, jeg elsker glimmeret som er i lakken og jeg kan rigtig godt lide spillet mellem de to farver i blomsterne.
    - har du egentlig overvejet at lave tutorials til dine blomster? eller, du kan måske henvise til youtube videoer som allerede findes? jeg er sikker på der er mange som gerne vil se :)

    1. Ja deeet er bare sådan en flot lak, tusind tak Sosa07ac :)
      Har overvejet, men det vil vist kræve for meget tid, er jeg bange for. Har ikke set andre anvende denne to-tone teknik,det er noget der er opstået i mit eget hoved ;)

  13. This is beautiful! I love the idea of using dotting tools only to do the art. Your big white flowers remind me of Monet, because his art is made up of dots too. :-)
