Building a bridal palm

Centre a mandala or figure in the cup of the palm, radiate lattice outward, cuff the wrist, and fill each finger to the tip. Leave a fine bare outline around the centrepiece so it stays readable once the stain darkens.

Plan 90 minutes per palm. Keep the paste on overnight for the deepest maroon.
