babdoyan's Profile

Bio

About 9000 years ago and steeped in tradition, the practice of henna tattooing began, a form of art and beauty unto itself. A little more than 45 years ago my artistic eye began to develop. After a vacation trip to the Middle East in 2000, the two events somehow collided to form my brand of whimsical art. For my whimsy mixed media -- I incorporate the swirls, curves, circles & lines of Mehndi (henna) art into my images - then married, rather randomly to my expression of realism which I suppose is my view of real life, & viola!

Here you have it, special brand of what I coined to be "Bajidoo art". I work mainly in mixed media, most commonly -- watercolor, aquarelles, marker, pen & ink, and acrylics - but also work directly with henna paste, mixed especially for my purposes for creating art on wood and other surfaces. Visit www.bajidoo.com, for more information on Bajidoo Art. Or Google me on the web (Brenda Abdoyan, Babdoyan, Bajidoo) for more examples of my artwork.
