Back art photo project

[nisaa]

I am doing a photo project which will hopefully be a book someday. The theme is back art - tattoos, body paint or other media that uses the back as a canvas. I most likely will be doing the photos in black and white for the project, so keep that in mind. Unless of course you have an outstanding piece in color that you think should stay in color.

Write to me here if you are interested or know anyone who is.
I will be in the Boston, MA area until the end of July and then I'll be moving across country with stops in Slippery Rock, PA (Pennsic War); Memphis, TN; New Orleans, LA; Austin, TX; Phoenix and the Grand Canyon, AZ and my new home in Los Angeles, CA.

well if you have the chance to stop in denver...I know the wings are starting to get a little old (when I got them done, I knew no one with anything even slightly similar, and now I keep hearing "Oh, I saw this girl with almost the same thing!) :P i also know a guy with a really beautiful buddha and bits of the tao te ching on his back. Really amazing piece.

Pretty

Your wings are pretty. If I ever get to Denver, I would love to photography yours. Thanks!

Did you know that I'm really, really into body painting? I do a lot of back pieces.
I've even put up pictures of a couple of the most recent practice.

(Do keep in mind that these are non-artistic pictures of the actual art - body painting.)

Just a thought....

Great! I didn't know that!

Let me know the next time you are planning on painting someone's back, or we can set up some time to do a body painting/photo session.

I will see if my volunteers are ok with that. I'm sure they will be. :) So coordination between my schedule and yours might be in order.

I'd be more than willing to let you photograph my back. I'll be in Boston a few times over the next few weeks. I have a pretty nice Japanese style tattoo started.

I'd send you pictures but Larry still hasn't given me copys yet.

Thanks, taz!

Email me when you'll be in town next.

Hmm. I've got tattoo-ness at the base of my neck, and the rest is a nice canvas.
Oh, and you're coming to my house.
How _ever_ convenient is that?
