I decided to go the nerdy route and instead of being esoteric and mystical for the 'magic' prompt, I went with mana symbols from the Magic: The Gathering card game. It's still one of my favorite games!
I actually started this by putting down the bright base color for each symbol. Starting from my thumb: green
Essence The Green & The Grunge, blue
Color Club Chelsea Girl, yellow
Morgan Taylor Doo Wop, red
Revlon China Flower, and white
China Glaze White on White.
I then used a small brush and some black acrylic paint to draw out each design. The environments on each were done in acrylic paint as well. I debated on whether or not to match the source image and do black for the rest of the nail or try something more ambitious, but I rather like the start contrasting effect.
