pointillism manicure.

Pointillism:: the theory or practice in art of applying small strokes 
or dots of color to a surface so that from a distance they blend together

Super Easy Manicure with my new dotting tool.
You can find them at most beauty supply stores.
or here.

I like to use Sally Hansen's Hard as Nails Extreme Wear
in White On - because it's the whitest white I've ever found.
Base color is always interchangeable. 

All you have to do is make a pool of polish on some scrap paper,
and keep dipping the dotting tool to load it up with some paint,
and dot it onto your nail bed.



Perhaps the most famous painting by the technique or pointillism.

Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte 
(Un dimanche après-midi à l’Ile de la Grande Jatte), 
Georges Seurat, 1884-1886.
