Before I start with today illusion’s description, I just wanted to announce that Optical Illusion Of The Day widget for Mac Dashboard is working properly again! Apple approved our new version, and Michael is responsible of fixing the “forever loading” image. You can download the new, 3.2 version for free from apple’s website. Be sure to download it and do some testing, and report through your comments if everything works fine. I need some of you who are always online, to report if the tomorrow’s new illusion will auto-refresh!
Diana Beatty is one who brought us these magnificent body paintings. We had Hand Painting illusions before, but I never received such realistic and high quality photos of real body paint art. Jump inside this article, and after the fold, you will see dozen of amazing photos, including some you had pleasure seeing here before. Here’s what Diana said: “I got these in an unattributed e-mail forward, so unfortunately I don’t know their source but thought you might like them.”
the gator owl, and spread eagle are the coolest looking to me, they appear to be real
These are fantastic! They look amazing, and at a distance, a friend thought the owl was real! Increadible stuff!
That’s true art! I love them all.
awsome
The artist’s name is Guido Daniele.
The last one doesn’t look like anything
They are brilliant. My children loved them, and it has brought about a day of body painting..
All of these are awesome! I wish I could do that!
Incredible. Absolutely incredible.
I love these! SO CUTE! (and cool!)
THIS SIGHT DESPERATLY NEEDS A DIGG BUTTON!!!!!!!
somebody please agree with me!!
i love the art by the way, real unique and interesting. i personally like the giraffe and zebra
halla back
wow. impressive.
btw. lots of body art illusions of late, no?
These photos are body paintings by Italian artist Guido Daniele of Milan. He researched each animal in depth and painted the details on his children’s hands.
Thanks for the fix…it sure does load quicker. BUT…I am still getting the hand painting images today…shouldn’t there be a new one?

The Owl one’s da best, I thought it was put in there to trick us!!! by the way ‘HM’, the last one is how they created the one above it!!
Just Great! Did you know the artist Mário Mariotti? The remarkable Italian artist Mario Mariotti (1936-1997) is a conceptual artist who transforms his hands into odd, fantastic creatures. He can turn hands into almost anything. His book “Animani” showcased a great variety of wild animals and birds — all hands, adorned with a lot of paint, a few toothpicks, string and some button eyes.
If you have the time, take a look on my blog, I show up his works:

Wonderful ~ shadow puppets have come alive!
the giraffe one is awesome
Again, these are by an artist called Guido Daniele. He works in Italy and has worked in the area of body painting for nearly 30 years
That is the COOLEST thing i have ever seen in my entire life!! i have never seen anything like it. ;-)
the guy who did these was in readers digest recently (within the last year or so) so you could look that up to find out who he is.. im not sure though myself of his name.
very cool though, i have to admit
haha. why can’t i get the owl? anyway, that’s really good. reminds me of that shadow play we used to do when we were kids. :D
the aligator is really good, but i think the elephant works best because the tiny wrinkles on the skin become the large wrinkles on an elephant’s skin especially in the close up elephant picture
they showed these on animal planet commershals
wow, thats cool ^^
i think these are pretty cool who would of thought to do something like this the zebra is really good and the giraffe and alligator were all my favorites how did they do the elephants tusks i wonder
wow thats so cool! i have recieved an email like that once i though they were pretty cool. some of them look really realistic though dont you think?
The elephant and the second bird (eagle i think) we’re the best!
these are from some animal planet commercials
the WILD cats look funny, and the dogs. to me. but i really like the giraffe! it’s cute :) and i don’t get the cat at the end :S
Awesome collection of Arts. I like it..
