My mother introduced me to bellydancing when I was really little. I've been in love with the music, dress and movements ever since. I make a lot of my own costumes and jewelry. This particular outfit is one I made. It's red by the way ;)

Looking at this portrait, I hear the saz, soaring above all the other sounds and fluttering around the dumbeki. This moment, frozen in time, is still capturing movement unseen and yet to be.
You have the body of a belly dancer and the soul of a gypsy. One doesn't have to leave home in order to wander far, eh?
