I dabble in henna art because I think it is a beautiful form of expression.  When I started doing henna many years ago, it wasn't because I chose to learn, I had to help at the booth when the henna artist was
too busy.  I am a portrait artist and caricatures is what I was actually doing,  I was chosen to help, because of my steady hand, I guess!  Later I will go more in detail about what I know about the art of HENNA.

Volunteer Caricatures

Caricatures speak the universal language of laughter, a languaje which is not limited by geographical boundaries or financial status. It is only limited to accessibility and exposure. I always wanted to share my drawing skills to make children smile. Every Wednesday I head out with my easel, paper, and colors to the Children's Mercy Hospital in my hometown, to draw sketches of the young patients, who enjoy getting their caricature drawn, happily getting involved in choosing a cartoon body according to their favorite hobby,sport, or hero.
