Moreover, the lips should have a slight slope. After the outline is created, it needs to be painted over. Now with a thin brush you should draw cracks.

Visually, they should be divided into three tiers. Now connect the layers with vertical lines. We continue to draw the weave, and our task is to draw two stripes, which we will create using horizontal lines. You can see the step by step process in the picture above. Now we close the picture, outlining a clear vertical design. It remains to fill in the gaps. This technique will help you identify the pattern. In this technique, you can create any ornament.

We create a substrate, and then with a thin brush draw an arcuate line at the free edge of the nail. Now paint over the outlined part with a shiny varnish. We arm ourselves with dots and place dots along the arc. You can also create dots with a brush. But this will be much more difficult, as you will have to control the pressure and make sure that excess varnish does not accumulate on the brush.

How to draw the design above? Create a backing and take the dots. By usingit draw 5 identical dots located in a circle close to each other. Dry the varnish, and then dip the dots in the color of the substrate. Now in each circle you need to put a dot so that a crescent remains from the original shape. It remains to put a point in the center. This will be the core. In this simple way, you can draw a lot of flowers. You can create the same graphic design as shown in the sample, or you can use any other color scheme.

The central part of the bottom of the anchor must be given a pointed shape, and small arrows should be drawn at the ends of the semicircle. You can complement the manicure with one large anchor or several miniature ones. You can create such a sketchy drawing not only with varnish or paint, but also with sparkles.
French with hearts
Do you like French manicure? Then we will figure out how to draw smiles on the nails step by step, and then a simple decor. Once you've prepped your nails and applied your base and color, it's time tomake white smiles. For this you need stickers. You need to place them so that the free edges of the nails on all fingers are sealed at the same distance. We paint over the tips of the nails with white varnish, dry them, and then remove the sticker. Now you need to complete the design with a pattern. Stepping back a little from the center of the free edge of the nail, draw a vertical strip. Now we arm ourselves with dots. Use it to draw a heart on top of the stick. How to do it?

Hearts

Now we will consolidate the information received and, using a similar technology, draw a lot of small multi-colored hearts. The substrate for such a design must be made contrasting. Alternating nails, paint them black and pink alternately. Now draw straight straight lines on the two middle fingers. This will be easy to do with a long bristled synthetic brush.

To make this design look even more advantageous, you can cover black nails with a matte top.
Draw with a stencil
How to create a simplenail art? In order not to bother yourself with painstaking work, you can use stencils. They can be used to create both simple and complex designs.

For beginners, the easiest solution is to buy similar stencils in the store. Later, you will be able to independently create such things when you fill your hand. They painted over the nail according to the stencil, waited for the varnish to dry, and removed the sticker. A beautiful design is ready. To make the manicure more original, you need to apply a similar image to two adjacent nails, and be sure to swap two colors in places. Yes, and the template needs to be glued upside down a second time so that the pattern on two fingers is not the same.
Simple pattern
Despite the easy execution of the design, the drawing looks non-trivial. How to repeat it? You should take a dots of large diameter and put a snake of dots in the middle of the nail. Now we supplement the circles already on the nail with smaller dots. Their location should be copied from the picture above. Now we complement the image with lines. We draw horizontal stripes in a checkerboard pattern: one to the right, the other to the left. It remains to create a smooth transition between the point and the line. You can draw a triangle with smooth edges.
