Hand painted nail art involves painting on the nails with creative designs. Angular brushes are used to paint fine dots. Fine sharp lines are drawn in geometric patterns on the painted nails. Use a toothpick to make stripes or patterns. There is a wide range of stencil designs that aid in nail art practice. Use colored gems and silver or gold leaf to best advantage. For a grunge look, you can pierce studs and pins. Delicate strokes can give your nails graphic designs and decorative patterns.
