Henna!

Is this cheating on my 30 paintings?  I don't know but it needs to count or I'll have a five-day catch-up :)

Yesterday and today I'm at Cookeville Fall FunFest selling my chainmaille and wire jewelry and doing henna body art (also known as mehndi).  I've been doing henna about as long as I've been painting and I've discovered that I really have a talent for it.  As a result, the techniques I use in mehndi have sneaked into my art in a lot of ways, and probably will sneak in more ways.

So there's no way I'm going to get a painting done these two days, so here you have it:  the art I'm doing.  

There's a henna page on my website if you'd like to check out more.

Wish I'd gotten a better picture of this one.
