Decoratives

I found the mehandi design booklet I got from Bangalore and decorated this with some of the designs. You can probably tell that I like decorative designs quite a bit... It looks pretty simple but the black parts took some time to ink. The ink pens I got last year are pretty good: the ink dries quickly and on the right kind of paper large black areas look quite even.

I don't know what the music for this entry is but I like the video. It reminds me of the Bharata Natyam dance festival we went to in Mahabalipuram. I really like the abhinaya aspect of Indian dance - the dancers use gestures to convey messages, kind of like in sign language.

+ Music: some Bollywood thing (watch)
