Body Painting Art In New York Fashion Week



Producing a natural and believable look, with special emphasis on concealing certain parts of the body, body paint is used to create illusions. For example, on fashion shows there are models, covered in paint designed as actual, trendy, fashionable pieces, parading on the runway.

Recently, the winner of VH1 Glam God, Indashio, hosted a fashion show during New York Fashion Week. He invited body-painting artist Jinny and airbrush-artist Mark Ink to use their skills to create designs inspired by some of his original pieces. All the artists needed were the bare bodies of models and, of course, their tools.

Here are some pictorial highlights guaranteed to make you take a second and even third look to differentiate between what's real from what's not.
