With a background in fine art, painting and illustration, New York-based nail artist Fleury Rose is known for the mini masterpieces she creates for her A-list clientele, including Tyra Banks, Anne Hathaway, Julianne Moore and Sofia Coppola. The ubertalented nail pro’s work has also been featured in a number of high-profile publications, such as Teen Vogue, Marie Claire and Fast Company. Here, Rose, who was recently certified by Swarovski Professional, shares her top five sources of inspiration.

1. Butterflies: “The butterfly nail trend has officially exploded. I love painting all different species of butterflies and making up my own styles, too!”

2. Swarovski Crystals: “I was recently given the honor of joining the celebrity nail artist team for Swarovski Professional, so I’ve been having a lot of fun playing with their new releases.”

Traci-Lords-Cry-Baby3. Wanda from Cry-Baby: “Traci Lords is such a goddess in this iconic role. I’m obsessed with this movie, and I channel her energy whenever I need an extra dose of ‘bad b*tch.’”

4. Burnt Orange: “My clients have been loving this color for winter—it’s so chic. It also has that brown spice 1990s vibe, which is still a huge influence on modern trends.”
