Lezard’s First: A Collection of Inspired Patterns Adapted for Mehendi
Lezard’s First is a collection of inspired patterns adapted for Mehendi, created by henna artist Lezard Cheung. This digital PDF edition offers the original 2003 pattern book as an instant download. It is a practical reference for hand-drawn henna work.
The book grew from Cheung’s scrapbook designs and was shaped after Catherine Cartwright-Jones sent hand and leg templates. It presents drawings that were tidied and beautified, along with new designs. Readers are encouraged to adapt, add, remove, or distort elements as their own work.
Book Overview
Lezard’s First belongs to the henna body art tradition and carries the subtitle A Collection of Inspired Patterns Adapted for Mehendi. It was published in 2003 by Henna Page Publications, a division of TapDancing Lizard, in Stow, Ohio. The collection includes 41 illustrated pages in PDF form.
The patterns are designed as idea references, not rigid templates. Lezard Cheung invites henna artists to interpret the designs freely in their own hand-drawn work.
What You’ll Discover Inside
- Floral patterns, including the author’s favorite fast designs and vine extensions beyond the wrist.
- Indian-inspired designs and jewellery-style motifs that can accent the knuckle.
- Dragons, phoenixes, peacocks, and other creatures drawn from Southeast Asian and Chinese traditions.
- Additional subjects such as carp, cranes, eagles, goldfish, lions, tigers, tortoises, and mandarin ducks.
- A seasonal chapter set in Thailand and a chapter titled The Enlightened One.
- Guidance to keep flowers alive and growing, with new blossoms sprouting from vines.
