Here are some really impressive body painting skills by 16-year-old Melbourne-based artist Lara Wirth. On Wirth’s Instagram page, she’s described as a self-taught body painter and a “dedicated procrastorpainter.”

It’s hard to believe looking at these images that Wirth has had no formal training. She’s truly gifted to say the least.

Sadly, there’s only a single image of this body-painted woman who blends in nicely with a bookshelf. Since books have already been done, I’d like see nude people with body paint blend in with their vinyl shelves.  That would be awesome. Has anyone done that yet? Veruschka maybe? I’ve given you task pro-body painters… now get to it!

Okay, so I’m hella late to the game with this one—in Internet “lateness terms” this was passed around last Friday—but for those of you haven’t seen this one yet, this bodypainted rainbow macaw lady was done by artist Johannes Stötter.

It took me a long time until I saw “her.” Start with the tail, that’s one of her legs. Follow it up, see the knee? The left hand is draped over her head. Isn’t that amazing?

Below, a tropical frog painted by Johannes Stötter consisting of five people. Unbelievable.
