Just finished crying, I couldn't write a blog just a while ago, but after I've found composure decided to write something to lift my spirits up at least just a little.
I've written that one of the induction to PUA as an incoming urology resident is Body Painting. Here's my experience as the contestant. Now, I'm sharing the experience, as the painter. This is my first time doing body painting. With no experience, without studying about it, just do it, "Bahala na si Batman".
So I was requested by my junior to help him out in his body paint. I didn't agree at first, well because I've been so tired lately. I felt blank, unmotivated, tired etc... Eventually, after around 3 days since he requested, I somehow was able to recover so I found myself in front of his poster paints.
Warning though, DO NOT USE Poster Paints to your skin. There's a reason why there's such a thing as body paint. Poster paints were not made to be placed on your skin. But these were just the paints bought by my junior so I have no choice anyways but to use them.
So below were the materials: yellow, brown and black poster paints, paint brushes, bowls and makeup sponges.
Here's the drawing/sketch of how he wants the body paint to look like:
He decided to go with giraffe, the theme for this year's body painting contest is "Jungle". I didn't ask why he chose giraffe. hehe.
So I started with golden yellow as base over his body. Except for the front middle part as shown in the picture.
And also let's not forget of the back:
So using mostly makeup sponges dipped in brown paint, I painted spots all over the body. And with black paintbrush did a little outline. Then with another makeup sponge, used it to blend the two colors together. Then I painted the middle with white.
Then the back
Not bad for a first-timer right?
PS: he got itchy when the paint dried and started to crack on his skin in parts where there's movement (like elbows, armpits etc). So not a good idea to use poster paint as body paint. hehe.
