Handimals, Hyper-Realistic Hand Paintings

Italian illustrator Guido Daniele creates these extraordinary hyper-realistic Handimals using techniques he’s learned from over 25 years painting on the human body. His hand models, often his own children, must remain still anywhere from two to ten hours straight while he carefully applies paint to their bodies.
