Hideki Fujii was a known Japanese photographer (he died in 2010). With make-up artist Teruko Kobayashi he published two books on the subject of painting on the body: Karada Kesho and this one Maquillage du corp.
Ms. Kobayashi is renowned throughout Japan for her natural style of makeup application, and of course, her stunningly beautiful body painting. She has worked as a makeup artist and consultant in advertising, for fashion shows, musicals, TV, film, and theater. In the books photographs, Teruko Kobayashi uses no tools other than standard cosmetics, and follows the principles of makeup application taught at her school. Working mainly with dancers, she creates beautiful temporary works of art using the human body as a canvas. It makes such a book a necessity as a testimony of her art.
