The Process
The vast majority of Craig Tracy's paintings are authentic bodypaintings captured photographically without any substantial digital or non-digital manipulation. Some of his bodypaintings incorporate a backdrop. These backdrops are created and or meticulously hand painted by the artist in advance of actual bodypainting.

The artists often states that Bodypainting is very much like creating music especially when considering the passionate and ephemeral nature of both. “I consider my bodypaintings to be visual songs that I sing only once so that they can then be shared and appreciated throughout a lifetime.” ~ Craig Tracy
