This Artist Uses Her Nails As Mini Canvases

I've always loved anything to do with art and basically anything to do with nails. So when I discovered two girls who thrive on combining these two spectacular subjects, I was pretty much overjoyed. 

Holland-based sisters Marlein and Annelie van Alphen (@creatinails), have mastered the art of the manicure. The sisters create gorgeous, lifelike masterpieces on the tiny surfaces of their nail beds. Their work is seriously impressive and has me pretty bored of my current, plain nail look. 

Ready to be blown away by some serious talent? Keep on scrolling for 16 nail designs that belong in a museum.
