Female input and feedback is sort of new on this forum, but I really think it's an asset

Welcome lassies!

I wish I was artistic like my brother, who can draw very well (and if he gets his act together might someday get a tattoo apprenticeship), but my henna has to be done buy others, which really sucks if no one is available when I need/want it done. How long have you been dancing, and what style?

I've been bellydancing (modern and some tribal) since I was 13. I posted a few pics of some of my recent henna work, but it looks pretty poor. The henna I used was bad quality, I was in a pinch. It didn't turn out as good as my usual stuff. I've done henna at a few parties. Henna parties are all the rage now and fetch a pretty price. I've done one children's party, but I'll never do that again. I think I hennaed about 4 children and spent the rest of the time fixing theirs. I also did henna at a local community college as a fund raiser for the La Feaux art club. That was so much fun. I've actually done good henna work, so please don't judge me by the pictures I posted. Those were the only Celtic pics I had.

I'm interested in the tribal look and feel, but I haven't settled on a style quite yet since I am still learning.
You do have a lot of talent...if those are your poor looking ones, I'd love to see your good ones I couldn't do any of it, so I bow to your talent.
Henna and children...ummm, no, no no thank you very much. lol. I almost can feel to anxiety attack that would bring on.
