Models Wanted
We are always looking for models for a variety of events. Commercial projects require a stricter adherence to certain body types, but for other projects we are interested in anyone, male or female, with an attractive physique that is interested in participating in this amazing and unique art form.

Portfolio Shoots
We are always at work building a portfolio of good work, showcasing our talents in a variety of creative endeavors. We are always interested in expanding our artistic explorations to include new motifs and thematic approaches in search of personal excellence. This is an ongoing process, where there is a lot of play and experimentation. The art, as always, has to be high calibre, so care and attention to detail is important, but there is also a sense of discovery and revelation about this kind of work. Portfolio work can take anywhere from one to five hours, depending on concept and complexity, and might involve several painters working on you at a time. It's usually done in a home or studio setting and is professionally photographed upon completion.

Special Events and Performances
We sometimes need models for performance events that coordinate the elements of dance, music, performance and bodypaint. These shows are great fun and can also provide a forum to highlight a performance talent or ability such as belly-dancing, poi, or stage acting experience. Just imagine exhibiting your talents with the added intrigue of being bodypainted. If you've seen one of our shows you'll have an idea of what we're about, For reference, you might look into our recent show at the Rex Theater in Pittsburgh.

Gallery Exhibits
Gallery shows are different in character from performances in that the models are less entertainers and more living artworks meant to be appreciated in a setting similar to how one might view a sculpture or painting. Models are required to strike a pose and hold it for a period. Then move into a new pose, and, again, holding the pose. Sometimes a model is painted on site as part of an event or opening.

Compensation
Fees are determined on a case by case basis for commercial, gallery, and performance projects. In portfolio work models are offered prints in return for their services, which they will receive as digital files on CD. Plus, the fun and wondrousness of the bodypainting experience makes for great memories.

All models are required to sign a model release form, which can be downloaded here.
