Body painting movement stared in 60's and now it is considered as da most antique form of art. Unlike tattoos, body painting is temporary, painted on the skin it lasts only a few hours or at most a few days.it's temporary and mainly done on female bodies because its not a macho thing. this post is very nice.I wish i cud visit that festival to have closer look of such a beautiful artistic expression.
