: Just a little while ago there was a brief thread here about doing
two-
: toned designs by doing part of a design one day and then doing
: another part later (or using differnt qualities of henna).
If the orange is fairly even (probably it's no longer orange), a
strong-lined design that follows the outline could look quite nice.
"The Human Canvas" that was cited earlier (Discovery Channel on-line
series) had one shot of a bunch of hands, some of which had a
reddish-orange background.
If it's not even, work the design around the patchiness. I have done
this with lines that oozed - outlined them or put curlicues on one
side and dots into the fainter part. (I realize you've probably moved
on by now, but figured I'd post anyway.)
