1. WHAT IS BODY PANTING ? Body painting is a form of body art. Body painting is temporary, paint onto the

human skin and lasts for only several hours

Body painting is not always large pieces on fully bodies, but can involve smaller pieces on displayed areas of otherwise clothed bodies.

2. MODERN BODY PAINTING Body painting led to a minor alternative art

movement in the 1950s and 1960s, which involved covering a model in paint and then having the model touch or roll on a canvas or other medium to transfer the paint.

Body painting is commonly used as a method of gaining attention in political protests, for instance those by PETA against Burberry.

2.1 – BODY PAINTING FESTIVALS Body painting festivals happen annually across

the world, bringing together professional body painters as well as keen amateurs.

Body paintings can also typically be seen at football matches, at rave parties, and at certain festivals.

2.2 – FINE ART BODY PAINTING Since the early 1990s bodypainting has become

more widely accepted in the United States, and more and more body artists are beginning to come onto the national community.

2.3- BODY PAINTING IN THE COMERCIAL ARENA Many artists work professionally as body

painters across the world.

3. EARN MONEY USING BODY PAINTING

Kids as young as twelve have made good money (like $500 in afternoon) doing simple painting techniques like airbrushed temporary body painting at festivals.
