Artist paints with her breasts |
2006-01-22 |
An Australian woman has become famous for her ability to paint with her breasts Di Peel's first canvas sold for £5, her second for £10 and she's now busy with an order for 10 at £40 each. The mother of two, from Tasmania, who is happy to describe herself as a big woman, works at the kitchen table rather than at an easel, reports the Mercury newspaper. She said: "I either apply the paint to my breasts and lean on to the canvas or apply the paint to the canvas and then lean into it to spread the paint. "I sign every picture with my nipple." Di says she has to take a shower ever time she changes colours and uses canvases because drawing paper tends to slide around the table. Commenting on her work, she added: "They are more like abstract flowers. But my latest piece, people say, looks like the Earth from space. My son named it Earthquake, because he thinks it looks like an earthquake." The artist's, uh, ample profile (NSFYE*) and examples of her * NSFYE - Not Safe For Your Eyes -- Fair Warning: Better left to your imagination. |

#1 She's become famous for her "ability" to paint with her breasts ? Anyone can smear paint on any body part, and lean onto a canvas with it. This does highlight a way for women to pick up some extra cash: Copy this woman's idea, and sell the results on eBay or at the local flea market. Or, depending on how bold one is, "prints" of more intimate parts would probably fetch a higher price. |
