surprise sweet 16 henna

The birthday girl had NO IDEA I was coming. And I did not know that it was a surprise. So when I got out of the car to see several girls outside of the house, and said that I was the henna artist... she was so excited!!!
I was there for hours and had fun doing so much henna on so many girls, many of whom are into gymnastics, so they had fabulous bodies, and wanted beautiful things to flaunt :)

Temporary Body Art - Mehandi at Midnight Sun 9/13/08

Here is a henna tattoo design for the wrist chosen from the many pattern books I bring to the Midnight Sun, Park Street, Five Points, Jacksonville, Florida.

I will have plenty of fragrant henna paste on hand this Saturday & should be in the shop no later than 1:15 PM.

This image - showing henna paste on the skin - is adapted from a pattern presented by the goddess of henna tattoo, Catherine Cartwright-Jones. This henna tattoo shows the tremendous range of patterns and styles available with henna body art.

Henna body art is safe, painless, temporary, and only takes about 10 minutes to complete. So.. what are you waiting for?

Henna season is coming to an end. Come get some color while the sun shines.

Henna Tattoo at the Midnight Sun today - 9/6/08

Here is a quick little henna for the back of the hand. Now the fabulous pattern was inspired by the very talented artist at Mirage Body Art in Tallahassee, Florida.

Be sure to visit her site for some lovely art & great inspiration. I did not complete her design, as my client just wanted a touch of henna to celebrate First Friday. This henna tattoo is a "Chef's Choice" pattern.

This means your order "somehing like this" but I only have $10.00 to spend. That way, you get the look you want at a price you can afford.

This weekend is also the Riverside Art Festival.. and there may well be other henna artists out to play. I will be at Midnight Sun.. I think in the window, but if not, please look for me to be set up in the lovely rattan furniture area.

First Friday at Bead Here Now! Henna at 6:30 PM

New to the idea of Henna Tattoo? Watch this excellent video featuring Traditional Henna Tattoo designs posted by Chandan Henna. Of course some of these patterns require much more time than we will have tonight.. but enjoy the possible.
Spirit Vision Henna will be offering henna tattoo this Friday night at Bead Here Now on Park Street in the Historic Five Points district, Riverside, Florida. Come on out and join the party. The shops are open late and galleries have new exhibits. It may drizzle, but if you remember to bring an umbrella, you can keep your henna tattoo nice & dry.
