NYC Body Painting '2016

The 3rd Annual New York City Body Painting Day held today, July 9 at Dag Hammarskjold Plaza (47th St. & 2nd Ave.), with 100 artists painted 100 nude models of all shapes, sizes, ages, races, and genders.

This year's theme is "Inner Beauty", encouraging artists to draw inspiration from their model's energy and character as they create their art. After the painting session, both the artists and models take a ride on double decker buses through the streets of Manhattan to share the artwork and body-positive message with the city.
