Chameleons are renowned as clever reptiles due to their skin color changing ability. The very talented artist, Johannes Stötter, inspired by this color changing creature created an incredible piece of body art. By painting the entire bodies of two naked models marvelously, he painted a colorful chameleon that is shown resting on a green branch. With the help of an assistant, it took him 6 hours to finish the body painting. To make the painting more lifelike, the artist worked on details, such as covering hair with natural clay to give them a bald look.
Summary
Nature keeps impressing and inspiring us every minute of the day. Few artists across the globe who take this inspiration a bit more seriously have come up with incredible body paintings that are thoroughly inspired by nature.
