henna.

91 Jessie's hennaed hands, originally uploaded by Henna Oasis.

For years now I have had an interest in henna. I have always found it to be such a beautiful form of art steeped in tradition. Maybe it fills the desire one half of me has to have a really cool and meaningful tattoo that is always trumped by the other half that loves the fact that I don't. I am fascinated with the practice of this intricate design work and the natural dye is the most beautiful color.
