all about henna blog

This blog consists of a 2 artists but im concerntrating on Surinder Marbha who does Home decor, body arts, events and gifts all which in some way includes Mehndi in substance and form.

She works with wax and mehndi,this is combination I need to work with to try make beautiful jewellery from turning wax into metal in forms of casting. But i need to find out how can i make these patterns out of wax. I admire her flowy patterns and that she uses Mehndi on differnt surfaces and seals it in such a way that is does not crack and fall off.

im trying to get in contact with Surinder Marba and find out if she uses certain materials and methods to create her wonderful art pieces which could help me solve my technical process problems.

Surinder does Mehndi as body art, she also uses mehndi on other materials such as glass, wood and wax.here are some examples taken from her blog allabouthenna.com
