Collection of beautiful body paint works

Body painting is a form of body art where artwork is painted directly onto

the human skin. Unlike tattoos and other forms of body art, body

painting is temporary, lasting several hours or sometimes up to a few

weeks (in the case of mehndi or "henna tattoos" about two weeks). Body

painting that is limited to the face is known as "face painting". Body

painting is also referred to as (a form of) "temporary tattoo". Large scale

or full-body painting is more commonly referred to as body painting,

while smaller or more detailed work can sometimes be referred to as

temporary tattoos.
