Artist and face painter Lisha Simpson's body artwork transforms her arm into cartoon-like designs.
The artist creatively uses her own arm as a platform to promote her artistic abilities and creates images that look like optical illusions. Each photo has a black backdrop and by painting parts of her arms black as well, the artist is able to create the illusion that parts of her arm are missing. Most striking is body artwork that turned her arm into an octopus tentacle and arm hybrid. Another image that is particularly captivating is one that turns her arm into the word "hello" and it is difficult to imagine that the artist didn't use digital manipulation to achieve the effect.
The unique approach that this artist uses for her body art makes her work stand out from others.
