Siew Wan wanted porcelain nail art for her CNY mani and requested for the peony flower as the design. The distinctive thing about porcelain is that it’s always in shades of blue, and tends to feature landscapes, or Chinese motifs like dragons or flowers. Fr example…
Anyway, this is how my first attempt turned out!
I used Gelish Sheek White as the base and did my art with different shades of blue. I feel like I should have mixed in an even darker shade of blue though…
Some of the nails had buds while others had full blossoms.
I think I might want to try using other methods to do this next time… Maybe with the one-stroke technique or just using a more watery consistency to for a watercolor effect. Hmm… What do you think?

I think a more watercolor look would go great with this!
Sounds like a good idea. π
Beautiful! Such a classic and wearable design, and very well executed!
Thanks Ariel… the colour combination makes it easily recognisable as porcelain, but as for design… I’m not too sure I did that well!
Absolutely spectacular!!
Thank you π
