At the Velankanni Festival this woman set up a small business on the sidewalk. Hand-carved stamps normally used to make block-printed cloth was repurposed. The girl chose a few stamps she liked and then the woman pressed the stamp into some burgandy-colored ink, then onto the girl's hand and smaller ones onto her fingers. I own several block print outfits and would like to purchase a few of these stamps, which are artforms onto themselves.
