# Faux Oil Paintings Peter Kun Frary's 'Make Up Girl' is Body Painting at Its Best By Michael Hines | Published 2010-02-20 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frary-s-makeup-girl References: [emedia.leeward.hawaii.edu](http://emedia.leeward.hawaii.edu/Frary/pic290.htm) Peter Kun Frary's 'Makeup Girl' is very confusing. It looks like an oil painting, but it's actually a photograph of a model in body paint. What a twist! Peter Kun Frary's 'Makeup Girl' was snapped outside of a [MAC](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mac-cosmetics-and-ella-gross) cosmetics store in Hawaii. This is an amazing advertisement. This almost-nude body painted model had to be a show-stopper. Way to go MAC, you've done it again. Now lower the prices on your cosmetics and we'll talk business. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.8/10 - Popularity: 98% | Activity: 99% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/stylephotography) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Body Painting:** Opportunity for businesses to explore body painting as a unique advertising and promotional strategy. - **Photographic Illusion:** Potential for businesses to leverage the use of photographic techniques to create visually striking and deceptive imagery. - **Creative Advertisement:** Possibility for businesses to think outside the box and create attention-grabbing advertisements through unconventional methods. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Cosmetics:** Chance for cosmetics companies to incorporate body paint as a creative way to showcase their products. - **Photography:** Opportunity for photographers to explore the combination of body painting and photography to create unique and visually stunning art. - **Advertising:** Potential for advertisers to embrace unconventional and eye-catching advertisements, such as using body-painted models, to engage and captivate audiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Body Paint Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miley-cyrus-maison-margiela.md) - [Stylized Portrait Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/face-to-all.md) - [Surrealist Beauty Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toiletpaper-magazine.md) - [Reimagined Puzzled Artful Paintings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portrait-of-a-woman-in-a-hat.md) - [Surrealist Pink Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-unreal-popup-shop.md) - [Iconic Painting-Inspired Puzzle Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/girl-with-a-pearl-earring-1.md) - [Glamorous Artful Bronze Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sweet-jane.md) - [Body Artwork-Inspired Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/body-tattoo.md) - [Glass Beaded Intricate Artworks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/painting-exhibition.md)
