Nail polish art:

Vote for Island artist Zara Linington and help her win £1,000 grant

If you’re keen on art, you may have come across Isle of Wight artist, Zara Linington’s work.

She paints on canvas with nail varnish, producing some incredible abstract designs.

Zara has entered a competition with Intuit QuickBooks to win £1,000 to help further her work. If she received enough votes, she hopes to use the money to expand her merchandise further.

She says,

As well as selling my paintings I transfer my designs onto fabrics and household items. They make beautiful cushions, throws, sarongs, prints, cards, and clothes.

I love experimenting with new goods, such as phone covers, mugs, placemats and coasters. I have had exhibitions including an exhibition currently in Camden and recently at the Parallax Art Fair in Chelsea.
