Indian Henna Hands

Continuing with our current Ancient Art theme, my Year 4-5 classes are designing their own Henna Hands. After tracing both hands, we painted a wash of diluted orange ink over the hands and a diluted purple into the background.

Students are now creating their designs in pencil and will then go over with fine black pens. We are also planning to add a pattern into the background....more photos to follow when we are done :0)

Well....they are all done...took a while as they were quite painstaking to complete!
