One of my earliest bodypaints was for a photoshoot at a local recording studio in Allston Massachusetts, The Music Gym. With Boston nightlife photographer, Haifotos, behind the camera, I was ready to paint local models Lydia and Scarlett Erin so they could dazzle all the bands and artists in attendance.
The early shoot was an all ages event due to some younger musicians at the studio, so I did a non-nude bodypaint with Scarlett Erin, painting her like a wild tiger.
Once finished we headed up to the main floor for a shoot and there we see a vibrant graffiti mural painted by local street artist, Miuret, which made for a great backdrop for the shoot.
However, later that night the event turned 18+ and allowed for the sexier side of my art to be seen. Local alternative model Lydia helped in that department by lending her body for a full bodypaint.
With Lydia I chose to escape from the norm of painted animals, lingerie and swimsuits I was known for, and instead channeled my inner Jackson Pollack by creating a splatter art bodypaint I dubbed, Popt' Art.
"It looks like a rainbow exploded all over you." I said in response to her question of how it was turning out. Of course I was a bit shocked, however amused, when she brusquely responded, "Well I feel like I'm in a clown bukkake video." Yeah, conversations during bodypaints can get rather candid at times! Anyhoo, we continued on after a good laugh.
In the end the shoot was a success and everyone there was impressed with the live bodypainting.
