Popular Bodypainting Events

Fantasy Fest is well known on the WIS section of VW for the candid capture of many people (women and men) who publicly participate in the parades in scanty costumes and/or body paint. #michele]] and #April are two canvases often found at Fantasy Fest. Biker rallies often have body painting for exhibitionists. And the World Naked Bike Ride oftens sports body painting of a political or environment friendly tone. Certain themes are common amongst body painting: #Sports Fans, #Advertisements, #Super Heroes
