序



　　以前總是以為，畫畫是要拿著畫筆沾染顏料，然後畫在畫紙或畫布上，才叫繪畫，後來發現畫筆沾顏料不是只能畫在紙和布上，還能畫在皮膚上，那時是我第一次接觸到人體彩繪。



　　幾年前，在一趟旅行中，無意間發現了另一項人體彩繪藝術，不需要用畫筆，也不需要沾顏料，而是直接把顏料擠在皮膚上的一種手藝── Mehndi，就這樣沉淪到現在……



　　人生真的有許多意外，這「意外」當然不是會害死人的那種，所謂的「意外」是說不打算放在生涯規劃裡的，或是壓根沒去想過的，卻在某個機緣下冒出來，然後就此再也放不掉的，而且這樣的「意外」還能夠把潛能發揮到極致，這是不是該稱為「意外」？



　　雖說畫 Henna 不過就是自己愛，然後再向外發展到其他人身上，慢慢的野心漸漸大了，希望有更多人能夠認識這項純手工的藝術，於是，擺攤，是！擺攤！不是夜市的攤位，而是現今最熱門的創意市集，能夠參與的，能不放過的都去了，為了自己最愛的，也是唯一會作的，我想我是豁出去了！



　　這麼熱愛 Henna 的自己，對 Henna 的最終期望是──別再把Henna 跟刺青搞混了。真的！



　　In the past, I’ve always thought that drawings could only be done by brushes and paint, and completed on paper or canvas. Later, I discovered that when you have brushes and paint, you can draw on materials other than paper and canvas; skin, can also become a canvas to draw on. That was my first contact with body painting.



　　In my journeys a couple of years ago, I chanced upon another form of body painting art, which can be done without brushes and paint. This form of body artwork can be done merely by directly applying dyes onto the human skin. It is called Mehndi. I have been deeply in love with this form of art ever since…



　　There are many incidences in life. These incidences which I am referring to, are those that were not originally in your life plan, or something you have never thought of. They just pop out right in front of you under special circumstances and take root in your lives. These incidents can even help you achieve your full potential. Aren’t these just the best incidents you can have in life?



　　I started taking a personal interest in Henna and promoted them to others. I grew ambitious, wanting even more people to fully know this raw form of art. I started to promote my work by setting up booths every where, not in night markets, but in the hottest venue nowadays – the creativity markets. I grasped tightly onto each and every opportunity possible, to promote the only thing I know how to do, which is also my most valued possession. This time, I am all in!



　　I, who love Henna ever so deeply, only have one ultimate aspiration, that is – for people to know the difference between Henna and Tattoo. For real!
