It was not too long ago that tattoos were considered taboo and were
frowned upon by the majority of society. Such entities were only found
on bikers, ex-convicts, and miscreants of all forms. However, today body
art painting is considered a valid art form and is steadily gaining
popularity. The artists have training much like the artists who create
on canvas or with clay; the only difference is the medium. Some tattoo
artists can recreate masterpieces and portraits on the skin of their
clients that could rival Picasso or Da Vinci.
Popular Tattoos - Body Art Designs
Tattoos are a very personal matter. After all, the chosen design is going to be a part of your body for the rest of your life. However, as with most things, there are trends that exist. Many love the tribal tattoos with their flowing lines. The traditional tattoos of anchors and birds are making a comeback. Celtic symbols are now very popular because their meanings are generally common to most races and universal in nature.

Many women tend to get tattooed on their ankles,
wrists, and lower back; this is where the curves are! Men will generally
prefer it on their fore arms, biceps, and upper back.
Body Art Painting
Unlike tattoos, body art is temporary and painted onto the skin. It
can last for a few hours or up to a few weeks. It is said that body
painting is one of the most ancient art forms. Now, body painting is
quite popular in both amateur and commercial arenas, and not all
"pieces" involve nudity. Many body artists will include small designs on
one area of the body. There are numerous festivals held each year in
New York and New Mexico where thousands flock to see the vibrantly
coloured participants. The modern revival of body art painting can be
dated back to the 1950's when artists would cover a model's body in
paint (typically female) and have her roll on a canvas to transfer the
paint. The results were intriguing - all the curves of the female body
in either monotone or mixed coloring.
