In fact we are fond of painting our bodies since prehistoric times. In past we were used to paint our bodies with materials like natural dyes, paints and pigments. In some cases we used ash, and clay, too.
The markings that the people make on their bodies are thought to have magical powers with which one could ward off evil spirits or the tribal enemies. Such was the thinking in past. The painting of bodies was also coined with celebrating of auspicious occasions like New Year or a dance party. Same practice can still observed in the indigenous populations of the countries like New Zealand, Australia, the PacificIslands, and certain parts of Africa.
In India the women and men are fond of using Henna. It is a colour extracted from a plant of Henna; it is also known as Mehandi. This type of body painting with Henna has been a fashion in India and the Middle East since many years. People paint their hands and legs and other parts of body with Henna during auspicious ceremonies like weddings. The use of henna or Mehandi has become popular in the Western countries, too, since last two decades.
The art of body painting is not a new phenomenon in the countries of South America, too. People here have been using indigenous materials to paint their body and body parts. They use wet charcoal and other materials available in the local surrounding. In some parts of America, a material known as Huito is used to paint the bodies and faces. Huito is a black dye, and it takes weeks to fade away.

A Gentleman’s Savior $5.6 When Stephanie’s art teacher issues a challenge-create a painting based only on the torso of a human sculpture-she decides to paint a Regency lord. But with his muscular body, longer hair and a few well-placed scars, Stephanie’s lord is definitely no Regency dandy. Her best work ever, the painting stirs an obsession Stephanie can’t explain. Not content to wait for the next class, she visits the art center, just to get a peek at her lord. She touches the painting . . . And suddenly finds herself in a bedroom in 1817 London, her lord standing behind her-very real, very naked and very ready to end Stephanie’s sexual dry spell.Before she can say “ton”, Stephanie’s indulging her desires with Gabriel, dressing in the height of Regency fashion and meeting the Prince Regent. But life in 1817 isn’t all tea and crumpets. Stephanie soon learns she’s reliving her past life-one that ended tragically. Thrust in the middle of a sinister plot, she must save the prince, save Gabriel . . . and if she’s luckier this time around, save herself. |

Along Navajo Trails: Recollections Of A Trader 1898-1948 $19 Will Evans’s writings should find a special niche in the small but significant body of literature from and about traders to the Navajos. Evans was the proprietor of the Shiprock Trading Company. Probably more than most of his fellow traders, he had a strong interest in Navajo culture. The effort he made to record and share what he learned certainly was unusual. He published in the Farmington and New Mexico newspapers and other periodicals, compiling many of his pieces into a book manuscript. His subjects were Navajos he knew and traded with, their stories of historic events such as the Long Walk, and descriptions of their culture as he, an outsider without academic training, understood it. Evans’s writings were colored by his fondness for, uncommon access to, and friendships with Navajos, and by who he was: a trader, folk artist, and Mormon. He accurately portrayed the operations of a trading post and knew both the material and artistic value of Navajo crafts. His art was mainly inspired by Navajo sandpainting. He appropriated and, no doubt, sometimes misappropriated that sacred art to paint surfaces and objects of all kinds. As a Mormon, he had particular views of who the Navajos were and what they believed and was representative of a large class of often-overlooked traders. Much of the Navajo trade in the Four Corners region and farther west was operated by Mormons. They had a significant historical role as intermediaries, or brokers, between Native and European American peoples in this part of the West. Well connected at the center of that world, Evans was a good spokesperson. |

Excerpt: Black-figure pottery painting, also known as the black-figure style or black-figure ceramic (Greek, , melanomorpha) is one of the foremost techniques and styles for adorning antique Greek vases. It was especially common between the 7th and 5th centuries BC, although there are specimens dating as late as the 2nd century BC. Stylistically it can be distinguished from the preceding orientalizing period and the subsequent red-figure pottery style.

Arsenic and Old Paint: An Art Lover’s Mystery $0.7 Former art forger Annie Kincaid has been operating a legitimate decorative painting business for quite a while, but memories are long in the art world. Now, with the blessing of the FBI Art Squad, Annie’s using her underworld connections to boost her new art investigation business, where she’s partnered with none other than ex-art thief/ love interest Michael X. Johnson. At first it’s strictly business, but when she stumbles across a body in an exclusive Nob Hill men’s club, and an insurance adjuster asks and an insurance adjuster asks her to find a stolen (and forged) erotic painting, and then her Uncle Anton is attacked, Annie’s on the trail of more than just art. This time, she’s looking for justice. Annie is a strong woman protagonist. She has reinvented herself from a checkered past as an art forger to a legitimate businesswoman/artist. She moves easily between high and low social circles. as she makes the rounds of San Francisco and Bay Area locales, including tunnels beneath the pavements of Nob Hill and Chinatown; the homes and hideouts-even a downtown sex club-of the rich and famous; and the artists’ studios South of Market. The Art Lover’s series has an entertaining light touch, especially when either of Annie Kincaid’s two romantic interests appear. But Arsenic and Old Paint also deals with serious social issues- some history of slave trading in Chinatown, and its connection with San Francisco powers-that-were; and the male exploitation of the female and immigrant powerless, an issue that continues to this day. |

Art Reproduction Oil Painting – Shard with Black Satin Frame – Eco Friendly – 29 X 41 – Hand Painted Framed Canvas Art $355 Enjoy a print of this bloody deconstruction of kitsch art. Reproduced from a high-quality photograph, this print maintains the detail and visceral power of the original piece. It depicts a torn and mangled painted canvas that has been splattered with red paint. This photograph was created in the premiere episode of second season of Work of Art: The Next Great Artist. The artist was tasked with elevating a piece of kitsch art into high art. The artist evokes a sense of violence and awe through the use of a desecrated painted canvas. Her use of sharp angles jutting outward conveys an internalized aggression. Its macabre presentation of a once kitsch painting elevates this piece to a definite conversation starter. Kathryn lives in Brooklyn, New York, and graduated from Yale University. At Yale, Kathryn developed her style and voice into something truly unique, beautiful and organic. She is known as the photographer who builds and photographs things concerning the body/human condition and the medical world. She’s smart, focused and she has always ripped through or torn apart anything standing in [her] way to make art. Frame Description: Black Satin Frame – Eco Friendly |

Brushstroke Legacy $9.99 Forbidden. Hidden. Denied. Can art be powerful enough to endure? Ragni Clauson’s work, relationships, and body all seem to be falling apart. And she isn’t convinced that spending her vacation fixing up her great-grandmother’s cabin and supervising her rebellious teenage niece, Erika, will offer any much-needed rejuvenation.As Ragni and Erika clean, they begin to uncover the secret paintings and life of Nilda, Ragni’s ancestor who lived in the cabin in the early 1900s. Ragni doesn’t know how much she has in common with her great-grandmother, but it becomes clear Nilda faced her own struggles. Taking care of home and menfolk, fighting off locusts, raising her daughter, and finding time to paint in the midst of it all were not easy tasks. Will Nilda’s passion for enduring art re-ignite Ragni’s artistic soul a century later?Weaving together the stories of three generations of women, The Brushstroke Legacy stirs us to believe that no matter the circumstances, we are called to use our gifts–never knowing when they might bring a stranger to a new place of hope. |

Corpse in Color [A Lt. Mark Stoddard Mystery] $4.99 The body of gorgeous, blonde, Alix Montgomery wasn’t even cold when Detective Mark Stoddard, of the Pomo Police Department, found her sprawled on the floor of her art store, artistically covered with splashes, splotches, dribbles, and drops of beautifully mixed acrylic paint. The handle of an artist’s paint brush had been jammed up into her heart, and there was an expensive antique watch chain clutched in her well-manicured hand. As Detective Stoddard unravels this mystery of death and deceit among the painters of Pomo, he finds that his list of suspects a lot longer than he’d like. The dead woman’s embittered husband (who was trying to get a divorce without going bankrupt from the alimony), admits openly that he hated her guts, and his live-in girlfriend wanted to see her underground years ago. Two women who taught art classes in her back room had reasons to want her dead, and a guilt-ridden art student says that Alix Montgomery was a sinner and wasn’t fit to live. A local miniaturist knows more about that antique watch chain than he wants to admit, and the clerk who discovered the body may not be as innocent as she looks. The way paint was slopped over the corpse points a decorative finger toward a local eccentric, who is already in trouble with the law for malicious use of acrylics, and the police chief’s own wife has no alibi for the fatal moments. Detective Stoddard finds a healthy wad of cash among the dead woman’s elegant undies, and the nasty odor of blackmail begins to ooze though the case. Just as the truth seems to be in sight, another beautiful woman is found dead. Is it suicide, or is it murder–carefully set up to lead suspicion away from the real killer? |

Elmer Bischoff: The Ethics of Paint $49.95 Elmer Bischoff (19161991) is generally regarded as one of the leaders among the artists in the San Francisco Bay Area who, after contributing to the local emergence of Abstract Expressionism during the 1940s and 50s, shifted the terms of their spectacularly sensuous brushwork to recognizable imagery. Bill Berkson writes that if “David Park was the classicist of the founding triad of the Bay Area Figurative painters, and Richard Diebenkorn the modernist, Bischoff was the romantic.” Designed to accompany a major retrospective of Bischoff’s work, this superb volume is lavishly illustrated with duotones and color plates that faithfully capture the subtle variations in shade that characterize the painter’s oeuvre. Berkson and Susan Landauer, both of whom knew Bischoff, provide the definitive view of the life, art, and teaching career of this important artist.Native to the Bay Area, Bischoff studied at the University of California under the “Berkeley School” modernists Worth Ryder, Erle Loran, and Margaret Peterson. His experience during World War II profoundly affected his view of the world and his place in it. In 1946, Bischoff joined the faculty of the California School of Fine Arts where—with colleagues Edward Corbett, Richard Diebenkorn, Claire Falkenstein, David Park, Ad Reinhardt, Mark Rothko, Hassel Smith, and Clyfford Still—he found himself at the hub of avant-garde expression in the Bay Area. Throughout his career, Bischoff applied his visual intelligence and unusual personal integrity in creating a uniquely varied body of work that invites our investigation. Having interviewed many of the artist’s surviving colleagues and family members, Landauer offers valuable primary documentation on Bischoff, the Bay Area Figurative School, and the cultural history of the Northern California art scene. Her lively text is supported with insightful research into the social and political background of the period. She considers Bischoff’s career in relation |
