Nail art, not as you know it: Cristiam Ramos recreates masterpieces with nail polish

Award-winning artist, Cristiam Ramos, is the talented painter behind the works, and his unique style spans far more mediums than just make-up. Real spider webs, butterfly wings and sweets, all serve as unusual assets in his toolkit.

Ramos currently holds a World Record for his creation of a full size motorcycle sculpture, made from more than 20,000 candies. Through his constant search for artistic originality, Cristiam seeks "different elements that are a challenge to work with, innovating in a new artistic expression."

Many of the artist's works are on display at Ripley's Believe It Or Not. Discover more at cristiamramosart.com.
