Let's start with some background. My name is Sarah, I have always loved making and looking at art. It has taken on various forms through the years. I minored in Art in college with a focus on oil painting and photography. I neglected my creative side for many years. It wasn't until my dear friend was pregnant and I wanted to give her a Blessing with henna the way she had done for me months earlier with my third baby, that it was reignited. I loved henna. The more I learned, the more interesting it became. I wanted to know how to mix it, I wanted to try different recipes, I wanted to make sure it was safe for my pregnant friend and my kids. I started mixing it in a plastic bag and cutting a small corner off to make designs, I've come a pretty far way from that and I still have so much more to learn! I look forward to constantly improving my design and line quality. I look forward to using this space to keep you up to date on what is going on with Alternative Artistry and documenting the journey. I will leave it with a picture of my very first belly henna. I still like this one. :)
