Madeeyelook

Alexys Fleming runs a Youtube channel called "MadeEweLook" which she uses to upload videos of her creating different body painting characters. This is how I came across her work and since then I frequently follow her uploads. She taught me a lot about which kinds of paints work well for each purpose and how to use them properly. She was one of the main reasons I got so into body painting and I used to try and recreate her designs. Her looks are mainly character based but are all very unique and interesting to watch and gain new ideas. She is self taught as a body painter but has also studied cosmetology so has an understanding of skincare and makeup application. I relate to her because I have the same background and hope by the time I reach her age I will also be as talented.

Kay Pike

Kay Pike is a self taught body painter who has gained social medias attention by posting her amazing comic book character body paints on herself and others. I find this so impressive as I frequently paint myself and I know ow much small details can be difficult to paint on yourself so seeing the extent of her work left me in awe. i love character body paint so her work was a massive inspiration to me and continuously gives me ideas. She even does a live stream of her body painting each week on Wednesdays and Saturdays on twitch. I first found her when I was looking at her portfolio on her Instagram and have been a fan ever since. She specializes in cosplay body paints and it's interesting to see her bring the characters from comic books to life and make them look so much like cartoons.

Anna Lingis

Anna Lingis is a makeup artist from London. She learnt the tricks of the trade by assisting Sue Sian and since then her career has taken off massively. Her talents range from beauty and fashion to face and body painting. I found her transformations incredible and enjoy following her ever growing portfolio. I like how well rounded she is and is able to adapt her skills for every part of the industry and still maintain a high standard of work. She entered the UK Face Awards and was one of the finalists which brought a lot more attention to her as an artist. She seems to specialise in skull face paints and has perfected them. Whenever I do halloween makeup i take nspiration from her as n my opinion she is one of the best I've seen.
