Artist's Comments

Model: Alex

This was a tribal black light bodypaint design done representing the phoenix. I was inspired partially by the 4 spirits represented by the phoenix, dragon, tiger, and turtle and I hope to get all 4 done in this way.

And yes, Fushigi Yuugi helped edumacate me on the 4 spirits, Suzaku, Seiryuu, Genbu, and Byakko. :)

The photography wasn't by me, it was by my friend Shaun ([link]) but the painting was done by me at my studio.

Check out the videos of the shoot here:

Absolutely beautiful work! Did you ever resolve the issue of acrylic paints vs. body paint? Also, what kind of lighting are you shooting this work in - I'm just wondering as the colors jump right off the model and I was wondering if it was ultra-violet, or just subdued, reflected soft white?

Nope, the issue was never resolved so I decided to let sleeping dogs lay.

The lighting was actually all UV. I got some black vinyl and blacked out my studio and set up a rig with 4 blacklight tubes to illuminate her ^_^
