Body Art - Body Painting Culture

Body art - this art has many supporters and opponents. Tell the truth, can not be called art at all. Opponents say that it is vulgar, ugly and even dangerous. Supporters give their reason, that for centuries people have adorned themselves, either with clothing or jewelry and tattoos, body painting, plastic surgery and piercing is just a way to make people beautiful.

What for? A tricky question, but everybody has his or her own reason, actually, there are a lot of them: now people want to look better, earlier it was a necessity in order to get rid of enemies and frighten them. Actually, everybody has the right onto self-expression and if someone wants his or her body to be painted, it doesn’t matter. The deal is – we should feel the difference and a vague measure between a vulgar and a stylish appearance.

Body art can be divided into the following arts: tattoos making, body piercing and body painting. Very often artists take a nude model and paint her of his body with various types of paints of different colours and nowadays it is extremely popular among celebrities (especially tattoo making).

I like body painting very much, as for me it the only one way, to paint something on your body and to wash it with a help of water and soap in a week or in a day. Very often body painting implies usage of the additional materials, such as clay, flowers etc. Body painting is made not on the entirely nude body, a model can have a bra or pants, because body painting deals with a small part of the body. I adore their technique in creating situation and pictures in the medium- so-called thematic pictures. When a model is only a continuation of the reality.
