:icondoomsday-dawn: came over and....

It was only a matter of time before body paint was combined with Sparks.

It did take a VERY long time to figure out WHAT body paint with sparks would look like. (Months, actually).

Once again, Michael was available to participate in an experimental paint. The goal was to create a very "painterly" feel reminiscent of Depression Era Public Works Art projects with a little bit of John Henry thrown in for good measure.

Body paint was all by hand brush (4 paint brushes), water based Ben Nye and Wolfe Brothers and covered all exposed skin.

This is another classic "Zero Photoshop" image from Adam. Meaning, no photo retouching beyond adding the water mark. In other words - Don't Try This At Home.

As I said to *Doomsday-Dawn, the photography, body painting, and the model's expressive posture are so wonderful! :clap:

The only pain was emotional, as Michael sat most of the day while Adam and I figured out what to do.
