How many times have you heart that art imitates life? Well, sometimes life imitates art. The artistic movement of cubism is a very interesting and often beautiful art that uses bright colors and straight edged shapes to make amazing paintings. While some people don’t find it tasteful, many love the creative processes and the end results that squares and rectangles make.

Cube art may not look very nice on most clothes, or even handbags, but it can look great when it’s mimicked in nail art designs. You can use any colors that you want and still have a great design. Change up the colors to keep it exciting and expect lots of conversations.

First, paint your nails with bright colors in a two-tone French tip. For instance, use a bright green for the tip and a pink for the rest of the nail. Then use another bright color, such as yellow, to make a rectangle on the side. Cover parts of both the first two colors. Using another bright color, draw an outline of a large square that just runs off the side – don’t complete the square. At the top of the rectangle, make a small black square (open, don’t color it) and then add another at the bottom that goes through the big square. Add topcoat.

Halloween is fun time, and ghosts are a part of that fun. Even if you won’t be attending a big party or the office won’t let you come to work in a costume, you can still have a bit of dress up fun. Your nails are one place that you can dress up to show your Halloween spirit without being distracting to co-workers and without having to buy a costume.

Having ghosts on your nails is a great way to show people you love Halloween. You don’t have to have a ghost on every nail, but if you do want one on each finger, the more the merrier. Ghosts are as iconic to Halloween as candy is, and they are the perfect thing to perch on your nails this Halloween.

To get your nails haunted, first put white acrylic in the shape of the ghost along the outer edges of your nail. Put glitter acrylic in the rest of the nail. Cover with clear acrylic and file, then add a gel seal to protect it. Using black acrylic, write “boo” across the glitter and make the moth and eyes. Add topcoat and then finish off your spooks by adding tiny google eyes if you want by just pressing them into the topcoat before it dries.
