Painting is the most common form of visual art. People seem to be so used to seeing such craft and regarded it as a boring thing. But when the art of painting is combined with human’s aesthetic figure and optical illusion’s mind-bending power, it becomes a magnificent masterpiece.
The images you are about to see are not part of a wildlife photography. They are the works of award-winning artist Guido Daniele which are called “Handimals” – stunning illusions of animals painted on human’s hands.
Guido Daniele from Soverato, Italy is known as a senior figure and leading innovator in the world of body art. He had been exploring and experimenting with various techniques of body and hand painting since 1990. With the human body as his “unconventional canvas”, the Italian artist is able to create hyper-realistic and highly detailed portraits of animals.
