Abstract geometric doodling - Artsy Wednesday

Our theme in this Artsy Wednesday is geometric, and I wanted to use Christmas colors - so *Ky* feel free to say the C word ;)

The base color is Chanel Pirate 08 and with acrylic craft paint I painted some random patterns, maybe not truly geometric, but this is how it turned out LOL.

Vores tema i denne Artsy Wednesday er geometri, og jeg ville bruge julefarver.

Grundfarven er Chanel Pirat 08 og jeg malede nogle tilfældige mønstre med akrylfarve, måske ikke 100% geometrisk, men det er altså hvad det blev til haha…

Lilis abstract doodling

The base color is Chanel Lilis 647, see swatches HERE. I was only swatching it, but still it called out for some doodling, so I went ahead with my acrylic craft paint. I think it ended up looking a bit warrior tribe like LOL. I topcoated with Seche Vite.
Grundfarven er Chanel Lilis 647, se den HER. Selvom jeg egentlig kun swatchede den, syntes jeg den trængte til lidt nail art, så jeg snuppede mine akrylfarver. Jeg synes det blev sådan lidt kriger-stamme agtigt :) Toplakken er Seche Vite.

Random subtle doodlings

The base color is Chanel Rouge Moire, see swatches HERE. I wanted to stay in the metallic frame with some subtle doodling, so I chose a copper metallic acrylic craft color and before I top coated with Seche Vite, I added inm Northern Light Hologram Top Coat Silver to the parts with the doodling.

Grundfarven er Chanel Rouge Moire, se swatches HER. Jeg blev i det metallic look og skriblede lidt med en kobber akrylfarve, og før jeg lagde Seche Vite toplakken, lagde jeg er lag inm Northern Light Hologram Top Coat Silver til den del af neglene med skriblerierne.

Halloween abstract - Artsy Wednesday

In Denmark Halloween is a new thing, a little pumpkins and such, and it's by far not like in the USA.

So I was simply not inspired to do a Halloween mani, when it became the theme of this Artsy Wednesday - and the one I did LAST YEAR pretty much covered it, have a look if you haven't seen it.

But then I thought of how often many of you think of Christmas, when I do red and gold mani's, so I hope that these colors will send you Halloween vibes ;)

The base color is Absolute Nails Ready To Go 19 from the perfumery chain Douglas in Germany. The pattern I painted with various stripers, and the top coat is Seche Vite.

Da vi jo ikke har nogen gammel Halloween tradition her i landet, følte jeg mig ikke særlig inspireret, da temaet for denne Artsy Wednesday var Halloween, og jeg synes at den jeg lavede SIDSTE ÅR dækker emnet ret godt, tag et kig, hvis du har lyst...

Men så kom jeg til at tænke på hvor ofte mine røde og guldfarvede designs får flere af jer til at tænke jul, så jeg håber disse farver kan få jer til bare lidt at tænke Halloween ;)

Grundfarven er Absolute Nails Ready To Go 19 fra parfumerikæden Douglas i Tyskland. Jeg brugte forskellige stripere til mønsteret og toplakken er Seche Vite.

Doodling on a fairys petticoat

The base color is a nude that I actually can wear, Priti Nyc Fairys Petticoat. It called for a little doodling, so this is the result, and as usual I used acrylic craft paint and Seche Vite as my top coat.

Grundfarven er en nude, som jeg godt synes, jeg kan bruge, nemlig Priti Nyc Fairys Petticoat. Det blev til lidt krusseduller malet med akrylfarve og toplakken er Seche Vite.

Ugly doodling on a silver torch

The Base color is Priti Nyc Silver Torch a grayish sand with shimmer. I felt like random doodlings in black and silver, but then I didn’t like it and spiced it up with a coat of inm Northern Light Hologram Top Coat Silver, and then I started to wonder what it would look like with two coats – and here is the result. It’s both a bit weird, but also a little cool maybe, you decide :)

Grundfarven er den grålige sand Priti Nyc Silver Torch. Jeg havde lyst til lidt tilfældige skriblerier i sort og sølv, men så kunne jeg ikke li’ det og tænkte, hvordan det mon ville se ud med inm Northern Light Hologram Top Coat Silver, og da det første lag var lagt, tænkte jeg hvordan det mon ville se ud med to lag. Det er både lidt mærkeligt, men måske også en lille smule cool – hvad synes du???

Nail Pattern Boldness Don't Drop That Spoon involved in a case of swatching and abstract doodling...

This is a mix of swatching and abstract, random doodling - sounds peculiar, right ;)

I don't really know what happend here - it just happened...
I had been swatching the yellow Pretty & Polished Delightful Daisy, and I thought to myself that a side swipe of Nail Pattern Boldness Don't Drop That Spoon would look great on it, so I tried.
It didn't look bad, but it needed more, so before I knew it various stripers were involved, and this was the end result....
What do you think?

I got Nail Pattern Boldness as a surprise polish because I shopped from Edgy Polish on the day they hit 500 likes on Facebook - lucky day to shop, thanks Katarina :)

Ombre Haze with abstract flowers and doodling

The base colors in this abstract floral ombre is the set called Original Ombre in thecolors “Haze”  from The New Black - I showed the ombre alone right HERE.

When I received the ombre set in Haze for review, I also received the silver striper. I painted some random stripes with it, and with acrylic craft color, I painted some flowers. I topcoated with Seche Vite.

Grundfarverne i denne abstrakte blomster ombre er sættet, der hedder Original Ombre in thecolors “Haze” fra The New Black – og jeg viste ombren alene HER.

Da jeg modtog ombren til anmeldelse fik jeg også en sølv striper, se den HER. Jeg malede nogle tilfældige streger med den, og med akrylfarve malede jeg lidt blomster, før jeg lagde Seche Vite som toplak.

Doodling on Monroe

 

 

The base color is gorgeous, wine red Picture Polish Monroe, and I felt like doodling (acrylic craft color) whilst testing a new brush – and I was quite satisfied with the way it worked for me. The top coat is as usual Seche Vite.

Grundfarven er den smukke bordeaux røde Picture Polish Monroe, og jeg havde lyst til at afprøve en ny pensel med lidt skriblerier med akrylfarve – og den fungerede rigtigt godt for mig. Top lakken er som sædvanlig Seche Vite.

Abstract Honey Bunch - quick doodling mani

 

The base color is Chick Honey Bunch, and I did some simple and quick doodling with acrylic craft color before I top coated with Seche Vite.
Grundfarven er Chick Honey Bunch, og jeg skriblede et tilfældigt, hurtigt abstrakt mønster på den med akrylfarve før jeg lagde Seche Vite toplak.

Electric blue doodling

 

- and my right/non dominant hand

 

I'm not back yet, but any day soon now...
The base color is 2 coats of Hedy’s Ma.nish.ma Electric Blue. It was a bit goopy and the brush is very wide, but for the second coat I added a few drops of Seche Vite Restore to thin it, and is was better to work with. It dries with a silky finish, but I prefer it with a coat of Seche Vite, it brings out the beautiful shimmer in it! And oh, before top coating I painted some abstract doodling with white acrylic color.
I'll get back to you when I'm by my computer again :)

Jeg er ikke tilbage endnu, men måske i morgen eller overmorgen...
Grundfarven er 2 lag Hedy’s Ma.nish.ma Electric Blue. Den var lidt tyk i konsistensen og penslen er meget bred, så til andet lag tyndede jeg den lidt med Seche Vite Restore, og det hjalp lidt. Den tørrer med en silkeagtig overflade, men jeg foretrækker den nu med Seche vite som toplak, det får shimmeret så flot frem. Jeg malede lidt ”kruseduller” med akrylfarve inden toplakken :)

Unplugged nail art, say WHAT?? – HVAD er det for en størrelse??

Dansk, se længere nede.
Right after New Year’s I was talking on the phone, doodling like I often do – and then I thought – what if…?
I was about to change my polish, and I wanted to try Zoya Dree, and it immediately started to cry out for some kind of nail art, and I know better than to disappoint a wee polish.
I decided to make an attempt with some random doodling without really thinking, I just let my mind wander. I used acrylic colors, that wouldn’t overpower Dree.
I unplugged my brain and went ahead – and the result you can see later this afternoon.
After wearing it 2 days, I decided to test all my army greens with unplugged nail art, and I set up these rules:
01. The colors in the patterns are not to overpower the nail polish, only match it, maybe except for a few nails.
02. The patterns should be “truly unplugged” – so no repetitions and/or copying – all 10 nails should be different.
Monday the 6th of February you are going to see the last of this series of army green unplugged nail art, and some days you only will get swatches of the colors, to see what they look like on their own.
You are going to meet: Unplugged Zoya Dree, Unplugged China Glaze Westside Warrior, Unplugged Essie Sew Psyched, Unplugged H&M Hunt Me Down, Unplugged H&M Wanna Pepperoni and an army green mix camouflage combo.
I really look forward to your comments on my new crazy idea of mine – and please tell me, what you think…
Lige efter nytår snakkede jeg i telefon, og jeg sad og lavede kruseduller, som jeg ofte gør – og så tænkte jeg, hvad nu hvis…?
Jeg stod lige for at skifte neglelak, og jeg havde lyst til at prøve Zoyua Dree, og da jeg havde fået den på, begyndte den straks at tigge om en eller anden form for nail art, og jeg skuffer af princip aldrig en lille neglelak :)
Jeg besluttede at gore et forsøg med tilfældige kruseduller, hvor hjernen var slået fra, hvor tankerne bare fik frit løb uden mål og med. Jeg brugte akrylfarver, som ikke ville overdøve Dree.
Jeg unpluggede hjernen og gik i gang – resultatet kan du se senere i eftermiddag.
Da jeg havde haft ”designet” på i to dage, besluttede jeg at gøre det samme med de armygrønne farver jeg har, og jeg lavede følgende 2 regler:
01. Farverne i mønstrene må ikke overdøve selve neglelakken, kun matche den, måske med undtagelse af et par negle.
02. Mønstrene skulle være” ægte unplugged” – så ikke noget med gentagelser og/eller kopiering – alle 10 negle skulle være forskellige.
Mandag den 06. februar kommer den sidste af de army grønne farver udsat for unplugged nail art, og ind til da vil der være dage, hvor jeg kun præsenterer farverne, så du kan se hvordan de ser ud alene.
Du kommer til at møde: Unplugged Zoya Dree, Unplugged China Glaze Westside Warrior, Unplugged Essie Sew Psyched, Unplugged H&M Hunt Me Down, Unplugged H&M Wanna Pepperoni and an army green mix camouflage combo.
Jeg glæder mig meget til at høre, hvad I synes om min nye tossede ide, og jeg håber du vilbruge tid på at sige, hvad du synes om det…
