I dreaded this prompt especially when my hand tremors returned. There was no way I could do any art piece justice.

Thankfully, I remembered reading about the Picasso Swirl technique:

I am sort of cheating a little since I did not re-create the painting but I choose to think I am following the very loose translation of “Inspired by…” 😛

I used the color palette from “Houses on Hills”.

I used two coats of Milani “Mint Candy” as my base. I then applied Seche Vite top coat to protect the base color.

On each nail, I applied one to two different sized drops of each color.

I used a toothpick to swirl SpaRitual “Running with Wolves”, Cult Nails “Feel Me Up”, Color Club “Twiggie”, and Milani “Quick Teal”.

I did not use top coat because the swirls look like dried paint on a canvas.
