Temporary body art such as mehndi, or henna painting, has become very popular in the last decade. Worn by pop stars and fashion trend-setters such as Madonna and Demi Moore, Westerners are just discovering the art form that the women of India have practiced for thousands of years. Mehndi is spiritual in nature, used by Hindus in marriage ceremonies and for other religious and special occasions as both a form of prayer and a way to celebrate.
In this hands-on workshop, students are introduced to the rich history of the mehndi tradition, as well as the best methods of application. Learn about materials, proper preparation of henna, the making of an applicator, painting techniques with henna paste, and ways of treating the designs to make them last.
Using a variety of basic traditional designs, students may practice on their own hands or on paper (if they do not want a tattoo themselves). Designs may last for up to two weeks.
Supplies are provided. For the workshop please bring a smock to protect your clothing. It is also recommended to exfoliate the skin you wish to decorate prior to the first class for best results.
Instructor Savita Jain has been practicing henna painting since she was 12 years old. She specializes in bridal henna and teaches at the India School in Bethesda.
Consie Sindet has been painting and teaching decorative painting since 1999. In 2008, she added “skin painting” to her business and is enjoying the new world of face and body painting. At the 2009 Fabbulas Convention in Philly, Consie had the pleasure of teaching a class combining her OneStroke painting with the world of face painting.
Consie is proud to be joined in her skin painting adventure by her good friend, Kristine Smith of SMB Applications. Kristine is the artist behind all of the henna designs and has worked with Consie on most of the projects that can be viewed in the portfolios.
Consie is also recognized for her unique murals and borders, that she has designed and painted in many homes and businesses in NJ, PA, GA and VA.
