Design Application Process:
- Start with drawing out a diagonal band, about 0.75-1 inch wide. This is the diagonal band you see on the arm with the geometric filler
- Almost perpendicular to the band, draw large scallops. Thicken the line and draw another line above and below your first scallop line.
- Fill in the space created by the dip in the scallop with paisleys. Fill the paisleys with a filler of your choice.
- Draw a small scalloping edge on the bottom scallop line. Fill in with a floral filler
- Fill in the traingular shape created between the band and scallop line with an intricate filler
- Fill in the band with a geometric filler
- Darken all outlines
- Draw a half circle to fill in the shape created by the band and the wrist
- Line the circle with a scalloped edge
- Starting at the edge of the hand, draw a peacock body
- Attach a big leaf (to be filled in later) to the left of the peacock body
- Nestle in a large flower petal (to be filled in later)
- Draw another large leaf where the peacock's crown should be
- Attach another peacock body in the space left between the flower petal and leaf. Make this peacock body large so that it covers the rest of the hand and goes onto the finger
- Attach a paisley where the peacock's crown should be
- Add a leaf on the middle finger to complete the flow
- Fill in leaves with line-dots in the center and shade in the leaves
- Darken all outlines
- Fill in the peacock body with floral and scallop filling
- Darken all outlines

- Add small paisleys at the tip of the finger at at the very top of the design
- Add decreasing dots on the fingers and on the top of the design
