Body Painting Network Singapore: Lenggang Lenggang Siput..... Dedicated specially to my mum, Hajah Khatijah Jaafar

My mum somehow threw me the idea of turning my nude body canvas into more local... KEBAYA... how about that.... mind you.. my mum is a typical haj in her prime.. she may be traditional but never conservative... yikes!... and for all her support, i vouch to do more of my local tapestries... for her to relish... she was astounded of what i could come up with.. and maybe after this Hari Raya.. i will do more.. and perhaps this time round, i will churn out of my late father's rich legacy... hmm?... JEFF!!! time to work something man!!..

This alternative art of using the human canvas is indeed spellbound!

I conceptualise how the art is positioned to suit the needs of an individual or achieving corporate objectives.

Somehow, unlike 'conventional' painting, body-paint lo and behold is a quick metamorphosis of an idea and translates onto a human canvas and voila, the creation is realised in matter of hours.. while most form of painting takes days, weeks, months and even years.

In short, gratification of beauty to be appreciated and immortalised on camera that will send both the audience and media into a frenzy.

It is simply NOT a quick fix though.

It takes talent, skill and dexterity to realise the imagery.

It is a team effort. Be it from the artist or the model. As much the artist is occupied on his creative juice, credit must go to the model for the patience, concentration, dedication and most of the time... standing for hours for the work to be realised.

Body-painting is not a mere interpretation of creative idea. The model is the conduit where he morphs and deliver the creativity realised by the artist. Only talent with body & movement will able to convey not a mere stoic model.

My job has taken me places and my artworks have graced for MSN, Microsoft, Canon, Dell, Swatch, Tag Heuer, Hewlett Packard, Franck Muller, Mitutoyo, Fujitsu, Swarovski, Bacardi, OCBC, Standard Chartered Bank, Polaroid, Heineken, Motorola, Levi's, Calvin Klein, Singtel, Mediacorp and .... the lists.....

With the inception of Runway Concepts where i decided to move on from Out Of The Closet Productions, i have infused fashion management using body-painting as a fashion platform, a Wearable Art to be the new hype in fashion fronts.

As other events will end with a lingering memory, body-painting is captured and immortalised on photos that grace on all social network fronts (thanks to whoever created internet!) and be wowed by everyone.

Simply, it captures the soul and the talk of the town.
