Parrot by Johannes Stötter


This parrot is in fact a female model who posed for body painting world champion Johannes Stötter.  The Italian artist spent weeks planning the transformation, taking four hours to paint his subject with ink.  The model's arm forms the parrot's head and beak, and her legs form the wing and tail feathers.

Thanks for sharing, Steven!

LOL, Mich. I didn't notice the pointy head, but first thing I thought was nice color saturation.

Wonder how long she had to hold that pose, yah Didi.
