Shy Geisha - free coloring page
Enjoy coloring this beautiful Geisha! A long-standing stigma has been placed on Japanese Geisha girls. When someone thinks of a Geisha, they think of a glorified prostitute or call girl. This is far from the truth. Geishas are entertainers, and they are trained vigorously in art, music, and dancing. If you translate Geisha into English, you get an artist.
Being a true Geisha is an honor to the girls, who when they become full-fledged Geisha’s are then called geiko. If a girl begins her training to be a geisha before she is 21, she is called a maiko, meaning child dancer. A girl or woman can become a geisha even if she wasn’t a maiko, but if she had been a maiko she would enjoy much more prestige.
