Artist Makes Portraits With Lipstick Kisses

Thursday 07.14.2011 , Posted by Benjamin Starr

Natalie Irish likes art so much, she just can’t help kissing it! Using just her lips as her brush and lipstick as paint, she’s been creating some bold portraits of famous icons like Marilyn Monroe and Jimi Hendrix. Check out the video below to see her tender technique… and be sure to catch the end: her lipstick covered face is priceless!

Before painting with her lips, Natalie did some finger-painting: the great portrait of Roy Rogers below, was made using only thumbprints.

Update: Natalie released a new video creating her painting ‘Influence’ – an uncanny representation of Jimi Hendrix (thanks to DB for the tip!)

I wonder: That’s art?
But what a wast of kisses.
I want some too please.

I wouldn’t mind those kisses on canvas, at all Ingenious and err, patched lips?
