body paint lingerie detail. Is it a corset or a bustier? I don't know what the difference is. I think corsets are underwear and bustiers are outerwear. Another of life's great mysteries that can be solved by a visit to Google.

Hot grrrls body painting

This is what I did yesterday. I have the best hubby, he brought us all chocolate cake!

I'm back & my sister's back.

Sorry for the hiatus. My dh's bday my bday & family emergencies a-go-go. Much hi jinx ensued.
Today's body paint image is my sister's back. She's very indulgent. Lets me cover her in oil and pigment & more pigment. I love the earth-tones in this. She almost looks mossy.

I think pregnant bellies--of all shapes and sizes--are adorable. Although being pregnant was not my fave thing, I did like my basketball belly (mostly for the reason that I didn't have to suck in my stomach, ever!).

Apparently the new trend in baby bumps is painted baby bumps. Seriously. The Daily Mail ran an article that took a look at this kind-of-strange trend. The body art includes fish, smiley faces, baseball motifs, and more--all painted on pregnant bellies!

And, there's more: Here's a belly painting company (yes, really) in the New York area, and check out these intricate belly art designs.
