Henna Hands of Fahima

Two weeks ago, at the Queens Botanical Gardens park entrance, I helped welcome and made name labels for the attendees coming in by car for our First Annual NYC USk Summer Celebration event.  The park entrance attendant was a junior college lady named Fahima, from Bangladesh, who wants to become a teacher someday.  I noticed she has these beautiful henna hands that she decorated herself for the Eid al-Adha.  It was so beautiful, I had to ask permission to sketch them which she accepted.
