Well, I am all set to head this summer to Austria for the World Body Painting Festival.
It is my sheer delight and honor to be assisting master body painter Mark Reid. I will help him with two classes and in painting his entries to the Festival competition. Certainly there are better painters than I who would love to have been asked, I however know Marks trusts he can let it all hang loose in those stressful finial moments of competition when the going gets ugly - and when it flies.....look out. And when it's over it's all joy win or lose. Of course we do not plan to lose.

See my Blog Body Painting Around the World to learn about and see his work.

body paint lingerie detail. Is it a corset or a bustier? I don't know what the difference is. I think corsets are underwear and bustiers are outerwear. Another of life's great mysteries that can be solved by a visit to Google.
Suzie is my lovely model.

Hot grrrls body painting

This is what I did yesterday. I have the best hubby, he brought us all chocolate cake!

I'm back & my sister's back.

Sorry for the hiatus. My dh's bday my bday & family emergencies a-go-go. Much hi jinx ensued.
Today's body paint image is my sister's back. She's very indulgent. Lets me cover her in oil and pigment & more pigment. I love the earth-tones in this. She almost looks mossy.

Women Who Paint Their Pregnant Bellies: Kind of Fun or a Little Nuts?

I think pregnant bellies--of all shapes and sizes--are adorable. Although being pregnant was not my fave thing, I did like my basketball belly (mostly for the reason that I didn't have to suck in my stomach, ever!). But, would I roll up my shirt and paint a big fat smiley face, or hearts and unicorns on it? Um, no thanks! Yet, this is what some women are doing...

Apparently the new trend in baby bumps is painted baby bumps. Seriously. The Daily Mail ran an article that took a look at this kind-of-strange trend. The body art includes fish, smiley faces, baseball motifs, and more--all painted on pregnant bellies!

And, there's more: Here's a belly painting company (yes, really) in the New York area, and check out these intricate belly art designs.

Now doesn't the title say it all? It's got random patterns on a randomly selected image. How random!
