: : On the cover of "Onkruid", a magazine from the Netherlands, New Age : : and all, there is a "henna" that looks like it's airbrushed. I say : : "Henna" because that's the title at the bottom of the photo, but : that : : the only reason to call it that ... It's a pattern that seems to be : : stenciled and airburshed (you can see the airbrush - like shading) : but : : it's been done in 1) Temptu or 2) ppd or 3) some black colored : : "henna". As it's BLACK and going up the hips and back of a Dutch- : West : : Indian lady ... it's definitely not the traditional goo. As it's : : symmetrical and hard-edged with shading, airbrushed into a stencil : : would be the most likely way of doing the job. : : The only way to find out, really, is to get one of those pens, sift : : like crazy, and 1) see if it can be done with traditional henna : : (still really doubtful)rather than ppd or colored henna {which it : : almost certainly can be) and 2) see if the medium holds up to : artistic : : expression or is a headache (clog much????). : : (The article on henna "Versier Jezelf met Henna", inside seems to : be : : full of quotes starting "De Amerikaanse Catherine Cartwright Jones : uit : : Ohio....." and is full material, jpgs and gifs I emailed to them : last : : summer. My left hand is bewildered by sudden fame. I can't read : Dutch : : well enough to understand the article, but it looks really : familiar, : : very well done, and impressed my children that their mother isn't : : entirely an inconsequential old bat....) : Catherine - send me the article! I speak fluent Dutch and can easily : translate the article for you! After all the nice things you've done : for me, it's the least I can do!
