This body paint photography proves that it's pretty amazing what you can do with just a model, some body paint and lighting.
This incredibly impressive work from makeup artist Allison Chase is equally beautiful and haunting. From a terrifying skeleton stalking you from the dark to a frigid interpretation of Jack Frost to a female tiger warrior, Chase's work is simply stirring. A viewing of Chase's Facebook page unearths even more impressive work and body paint photography spanning many genres and ideas. Her gallery is filled with steampunk shots, glamorous models with tribal facial tattoo work, and even some work from well known Hollywood franchises.
A common theme in all her work seems creepy, slightly macabre and horrific images juxtaposed with great lighting and beautiful models.
