Body painting is an ancient and traditional form of artistic expression that has long existed in many tribal cultures. There is no doubt that the naked body is a perfect work of art on it’s own, but these artists have taken it one step further and turned the human form into an actual canvas!

The natural shapes and curves of the human body served as inspiration for these masterpieces. The resulting images reflect the connection between the artists and their subjects, and what they created together is truly mesmerizing!!
