What's new?
So, things were kind of slow with my posts this summer while I was busy enjoying my internship :). To think of it, its been more than 3 months since I made a post. I had almost forgotten my account details which were required for me to log in and make this new post. Maybe I should keep my username and passwords the same across the tons of different accounts. But my training and education as a computer scientist and engineer don't allow me to do that :)
Anyways, this is not a blog about me as an engineer or even my life as an MBA candidate, but about the art of henna and of me as a henna artist, so let's get along with that. So, what's new with my henna art?
Until now, I always offered my henna art as a service at arts and craft events, street shows, individual events and at groups events. However, there were several who loved the designs but didn't want henna on their skin as a tattoo. I thus had to find a way to convert my service to a product. And nothing seemed better than greeting cards. That's right -- Blank Greeting cards featuring my henna designs (in original work and as prints).
Over the summer I came up with several new designs, some of which I incorporated in this new product offering. For the original work, I used real henna and/ or acrylic paints to put my henna designs on the greeting cards.
And this month, on popular demand, my paintings and greeting cards are back on display at the Bean Counter in Worcester, MA. I'll post some of the photographs from the Bean in a week, so check back then. Until then, ciao.
