" Tap into your inner artist and create this mini mani masterpiece. Who knew random swipes of paint could look so chic? Nail artist Simcha Whitehill aka Miss Pop shows and tells Cosmo exactly how to execute this easy-to-do look.  1. Prep and paint. &amp;quot;After you&amp;#039;ve filed your nails into the desired shape, pushed back your cuticles&amp;quot; \u2014 remember, DO NOT CUT THEM! \u2014 &amp;quot;and applied a basecoat, paint your nails navy blue as the base color,&amp;quot; says Whitehill. Hand model Annie Fox used Essie Nail Polish in After School Boy Blazer here.  2. Create swipes of silver paint. &amp;quot;Make sure to get all of the lacquer off of the brush by dragging it against the inside of the top of the bottle,&amp;quot; Whitehill explains. &amp;quot;That way you can actually see the bristle marks when you swipe the brush across your nail. Then, haphazardly create three to four brush strokes of a metallic silver polish onto each nail.&amp;quot; Try Essie Nail Polish in There&amp;#039;s No Place Like Chrome. 3. Add more brush strokes in gold. &amp;quot;Using Essie&amp;#039;s Good As Gold polish, as well as the same technique from step two, swipe on a metallic gold shade in the open spaces where the silver isn&amp;#039;t,&amp;quot; she says. 4. Seal the deal. &amp;quot;With a top coat, lock in the color to prevent chipping,&amp;quot; adds Whitehill. Try Deborah Lippmann Gel Lab Top Coat. There, done and done. You&amp;#039;re basically Jackson Pollock at this point \u2014 congratulations. Photo Credit: Elizabeth Griffin Follow Carly Cardellino on Facebook and Twitter.
