Extracting shapes
henna cone practice
We had to take shapes from Islamic motifs and designs, just like the Autonomous project. However, this time we had to take something out of the two predefined circles we had already created. We have to come up with our own henna design using those shapes. We were strongly restricted from using florals or other typical henna design components.

I used a white pen to practice applying henna beforehand because there is no going back if I make a mistake. Even though I've used henna before, the above pattern was difficult for me to complete since the delicate lines made it extremely complicated. Additionally, I had trouble adjusting the entire design to fit my hand's size.Â
