I also see dancing ladies -- very Matisse-like. But since that
wasn't what you originally set out to do...here is my advice. I
agree with Darlahood that starting in the middle is a good thing. If
I'm doing a design that needs a real circle (not like a lopsided
circle), I'll put a coin down and mark out the circle in orange
washable crayola marker -- I think it's OK to use guides, esp. to
help make things symmetrical. No-one I've hennaed ahs ever
objected. Also, if I don't have a clear idea in my brain of what the
thing looks like, I get a picture or draw one on paper beforehand (I
do THAT a lot. People ask, can you do a cow -- and i don't have one
in my book, so I'll draw one on paper and say, it'll look similar to
this -- do you like this? It keeps me from having to think about
what something looks like when I'm doing the henna, and they have a
good idea of what they will get, too)

Hope this is helpful.
