If you truly love arts, you would definitely appreciate these outstanding weird beauties.
There are one of the kind animal portraits painted by Florida-based artist Shannon Holt. Look carefully, you’ll notice the canvases are actually human bodies contorted into just the right position.
Shanno, who is an expert body-painter decided the skin was the perfect medium to express her talent and she spends between 6 and 12 hours instructing the models to adopt the right stance and painstakingly painting every little detail of the animal she brings to life through her art.

“The body was the final surface I tried before I decided skin was the key to making my work successful. “I love it because it happened automatically and beautifully with no planning – it’s a perfect creative example of how cool body painting can be. It can transform into two different images with the re-positioning of the model’s arms and hands. It’s here and then it’s gone. It’s kind of like ourselves — we’re here on the Earth and then we’re gone, and it’s beautiful.” she told the Daytone Beach News Journal.
