I'm glad you like it!   I paint with nail polish

I suggest you to try acrylic paint. It'll make better lines and will be less complicated. I started by painting with polish and switched to acrylic paint a year and an half ago. Of course, you still need to apply your polish base colours but if you topcoat there is absolutly no problem in using acrylic paint. The end result is smoother.

Do you know Robin Moses? She's a wonderful (and highly skilled) nail artist. She has a lot of videos on youtube and a few of them will explain everything about brush cutting and how to paint on nails with acrylic!

I was always jealous of to such masters.   Unfortunately I don't have the same abilities. But i'm learning.

Yeah it's very pretty. I saw a few people copying is without giving credits. It's kind of sad. 

As for talent, you just have to work hard. I've been doing nail art for more than two years and I still struggle sometimes. Work work work work! No one became a master in two days!
