Work outward from the middle and this one organizes itself. A flower holds the center, a stippled bead disc ringed by pointed petals with solid black wedges driven between them, and every ring beyond it answers the ring before.
Those rings alternate in character rather than repeating. One is built from long petals ruled with chevrons, the next from overlapping teardrops, the next from scalloped shells drawn arc inside arc. The outline never settles into a plain circle either. It finishes as a crown of points, and from the tips fine beaded chains and curled tendrils hang out into the white paper.
There is no border, no background and no hand or arm underneath, so the medallion floats on plain paper and the page does its own framing. The line stays fine throughout while the detail stays dense, which makes this the longest sheet in the henna set to finish and the one that most rewards a sharp pencil.
One hue in graded values suits it better than a scatter of colors, darkest at the outer points and palest at the core, because the ring structure is already doing the work of drawing the eye inward. Leave the black wedges at the center alone. They are the only heavy marks on the sheet, and they are what stops the middle dissolving into pattern.
