How to Create Mehndi Designs by Jessica Mazurkiewicz
People around the world have practiced the art of mehndi -- or henna tattoos -- for centuries. The intricate designs are often worn in conjunction with religious rituals to cultivate good luck and blessings. They're also a popular form of self-expression, offering a beautiful and temporary form of body art.These illustrated step-by-step instructions feature easy-to-follow exercises showing how to combine dots, swirls, ripples, and other patterns into original versions of the traditional patterns. Guidelines include suggestions for combining the simple shapes that form the basic elements of mehndi, a selection of motifs, practice pages with unfinished patterns, many helpful tips, and plenty of samples for coloring.
Jessica Mazurkiewicz's illustrations and designs have been used as editorial illustrations, book covers, coloring and activity books, and educational readers as well as decals, dinnerware, glassware, home textiles, beauty products, and packaging. She has created dozens of Creative Haven(R) coloring books for Dover, many of which are bestsellers, including Psalms, Favorite Hymns, Truly Tropical, Beautiful Butterfly Designs, Nature Whimsy, and many more. Jessica was born and raised in Vermont, but moved to New York to study Illustration at the School of Visual Arts. After living in New York for 10 years, she moved back to Vermont, where she works from her home studio. When not working, Jess can usually be found cuddling with her dog or one of her cats, or in her kitchen testing out a new recipe. She can also frequently be found at her favorite Barcade playing Galaga or Centipede.
