Beautiful Body Paint



Imagine a blank canvas, and you are a painter. You wish to express your innermost thoughts and feelings on this canvas in the form of a visual work of art. You ask yourself, "What is my mood? How do I feel? What is it that I wish to say? How do I wish to say it?" You choose your colors, shapes, and textures very carefully to set the overall feeling of the painting based on your mood. You want to paint a picture that says sensuous, warm, soft, and sexy. With what colors do you fill your pallet? What shapes do you use? The strokes of your brush create what textures? Maybe you find candy apple red to be a sexy color. Possibly rounded, full shapes are sensuous to you and smooth brush strokes create the softness that you want your painting to portray. Or what if you want your painting to say hot, fierce, and sassy? What then would you choose to include in your lingerie wardrobe to create this vision?
Now, imagine that you are the blank canvas. How do you express yourself with this type of visual art so as to capture the attention of your audience and get your message across? You do it in exactly the same way. What is lingerie? As early as the late 19th Century, lingerie has been a thing of beauty, a tantalizing, visually stimulating beacon of sexuality. It is a source of erotic showmanship, an informal invitation of sorts. It is a form of expression. It is a work of artistic creativity. It is a visual art. Lingerie is the paint for our canvass. We put together the combination of colors, shapes, and textures to answer the same questions of the painter. "What is my mood? How do I feel? What is it that I wish to say? How do I wish to say it?"
