Does it last like a tattoo?

The pictures show the look only; how long henna lasts on the skin depends on the artist and the skin, and is not shown here.

Can I ask for a butterfly or a name initial?

Yes. Type it as a direction; the result is a request, not a promised match to these nine.

What are the three looks?

A clean portfolio shot on linen, a film snapshot in late sun, and a black and white picture in side light.

Tattoo mehndi design: wrist sun, finger snake, moon behind the ear

Tattoo mehndi — a small fine-line henna sun with rays on the inner wrist, crisp like a tattoo, a thread bracelet beside it, shot like a fine-line tattoo portfolio picture against plain pale linen, soft diffuse daylight from camera-left, the balance airy and bright with almost no shadow

Reading 3Behind the ear

Tattoo mehndi is henna that looks like a tattoo for a week: one motif in fine line, placed like ink. These nine show a small fine-line sun on the inner wrist, a slender snake winding around the index finger, and a crescent moon with three dots behind the ear. Each is shown like a tattoo portfolio picture on plain linen, as a warm 35mm film snapshot or in black and white.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
