Human Canvas
My friend sent these to me via email, but copied down their link incorrectly... So I have no idea where they came from :\ I wish I did, so I could give them credit as well as look at what else they have!~*~
But yeah, my friend sent this because we went to a festival type thing last year and they had a body painting contests. There were painters and their human canvas' and I was just amazed! I had no camera at the time [bummer...] so all I have left are some flyers from the event. But now I'm remembering them and the art was much like these two here. The artists were picking people out of the crowd and I was asked by one of the painters if I would let them use me as their canvas... Although he was nice about it, I declined. I was WAY too shy to be half naked, painted, and then stared at for a few hours by a bunch of people!!!
If any of you know where these pictures came from, please let me know!
I hope I don't get in trouble for having these up :(

very beautiful artwork! ;D
you should be flattered that he asked - but yeah - it would be major embarassing.
AD
the human body is the most amazing mass of shapes, curves, arcs and beauty.
As an artist, I've painted, drawn, even sculpted women in multiple fashions. Nothing like what you've shown, but I've had my share of studies and I gotta tell you, it's an incredible experience.
Some day I'll get off my ass and post more of my work... since most of it nowadays is mainstream design (posting from 3 entries past has some of those examples) but if you check waaaaaaay back in my archives, you'll find an entry talking about Design, and there's a sample of one of my future webpages that has one of my favorite life drawings/studies on it. (along with sirbrush work of endangered animals I do!)
so... check it out sometime!
Hope you're well...
Oh, and hey, no worries about that spider... that particular kind only like juicy bugs... not K-fingers.
:)
I'm glad you guys liked the pictures- I really wish I knew where they came from...
AD, I would be very embarassed! If they painted me blue, I would be blushing so much I would end up having a purple face :p
And yes, B, I will be sure to look for that entry once I'm done here :)
Thanks for your comments everyone!
