In a world where body painting is celebrated more often with testosterone than artistic appreciation, Australian artist Emma Hack stands out.  This skin illustrator, sculptor and photographer spent her early days as a hairstylist and make-up artist in Adelaide.  In its infancy, Emma Hack saw her vision come to life in unlikely places, like face paintings for children or high-fashion makeup.  It wasn’t until 1999 that Hack revealed her new form of art for the body, a stylized version of body painting that instantly won her a note of applause in the art world.
