While browsing through my photos, I found a series of shots which were taken during one of my bodypainting sessions. Last year, a friend of mine was pregnant and I had the honor to paint the earth on her belly.\u00a0\"\"<\/a>I used Kryolan Aquacolor paint, water color brushes and small sponges. This is only the second body painting I ever made. Beforehand, I got some helpful hints from Oona<\/a> regarding the materials. Thank you for that, Oona!<\/p>\n

The master was an old globe that I inherited from an aunt of mine.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It took about 2 hours to paint the globe, including some breaks for the lovely “canvas” to rest. Even though her job was only to sit still, it was more exhausting than you’d expect.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In the end, even the big sister of the baby inside the belly wanted to take part in the painting.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The final result. One can see the fading ocean on the left bottom corner (fading created by using a small sponge) and the texture of the dried color.<\/p>\n

Photos were taken by the father of the baby. By now, the earth’s baby is already born and about one year old. I guess one day, she will see the pictures and understand that she used to be a canvas.<\/p>\n

I thank all people involved in this session for their enthusiasm and spirit throughout the whole day. It was a really nice experience for me and a great chance to do some bodypainting art. Thanks a lot!<\/p>\n
