The Artist …..
I have been working as a freelance henna artist here in the UK and overseas since 1993. I learned my artform in Kuwait where I grew up (1977-1990). I have since published books and training courses in a variety of languages and countries, to help pass on my knowledge and skills. I have also continued to advance my artwork skills, embracing and developing new products to cater to the ever expanding demands of the temporary body art world. Different jobs & events call for different temporary body art effects. As an experienced body artist, I work with a wide range of products, so I have a product for every requirement. Whether you are looking for Traditional Bridal Henna or for a ‘Dusk ‘Till Dawn’ Fake Tattoo Special for a photoshoot – look no further, you’ve found me!
I work in the following products:
Natural Henna (a.k.a. Mendhi)
Natural Jagua (a.k.a. Genipa)
Temporary Tattoo Paints
Custom Colour Gels
Water Based Body Paints
