The Art of Body Painting.

Body Painting or also known as temporary tattoo is now a form of body art, it always existed in tribal cultures, they used Clay or natural pigments or even dyes, mostly and commonly used for ceremonies and nowadays used as way of communication. I was privileged to witness and document my friend International body painting artist John Vargas working on this amazing professional Model Catalina Gonzalez during the opening ceremony of a hotel in Manhattan NY.
