Body Painting: The Human Canvases of Danny Setiawan

| August 30, 2011 | Comments (8)

Lead me not into temptation… for I can find it myself. And I did, most of it on Danny Setiawan’s website. If art and beautiful women are tantalizing, then look no further. You don’t even have to choose, as famous artworks and gorgeous women have merged in a photographic display.

Body painting may come in many forms. A good form of body painting manages to hide nudity and replace it with paint. And if you catch a glimpse of these women, you’ll see that Danny Setiawan replaced nakedness with famous artworks.

This last piece is not one of Danny Setiawan’s works, but I enjoyed it and found it worthy of mentioning in this article since it befits the theme so well.

Sometimes you can’t even tell that the reproductions of the works of art aren’t painted on a t-shirt, but on skin. That’s why body painting is a good excuse for a Halloween costume. It’s actually pretty original to go dressed up as a famous artwork… or should I say undressed as a famous artwork?

About Le Poissonchat: If she wasn't a catfish, she'd probably be a hyperactive bookworm; but she's an energetic person interested in what is and what isn't a good read, a worthwhile piece of art or an out of the ordinary movie. Whether a subject is underwater, underground, above ground or up on cloud nine she'll find it and write it. View author profile.
