Model Aly Beany (IG: @alybeany ) was good enough to indulge this concept that had been in my head for a while. Fortunately I used to coach fencing so could provide instruction. Prints will be available at https://www.dkmackinnon.ca/Prints/Art-Prints

I had promised Melysa Parent (IG: @melysa_asylem) a body art design and a year later we were able to do the shoot. We used the session to test a combination of fresnel and tiled coloured gels as a lighting setup.

A tape body art piece I created for Geneviève Dupuis (IG: @g_dupuis_) to test a new blacklight tape. The glow was really bright, but the tape itself was similar to athletic tape so didn't bend well. It's best used for designs with few curves.

A short video introducing a tape body art piece I created for Geneviève Dupuis (IG: @g_dupuis_). The intent was to test a new blacklight tape, and to try out short-form video. I’ll post an image of this later.
