But she doesn’t work on canvas or clay; her medium is the beautiful form of the human body.<img src="http://i35.tinypic.com/2a7agrk.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Hack began her career as a makeup artist, hairdresser and children’s face painter. But her talents have continued to grow and evolve over the last two decades into the mature and fascinating form she works in today. Her paintings are applied directly to models’ bodies and match up perfectly with their background, acting as a kind of camouflage. But the bodies are not entirely hidden in the patterns; rather, they become part of the pattern and allow the background to flow even more beautifully.                          <img src="http://i37.tinypic.com/5b8qrl.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The wallpapers featured are by the legendary designer Florence Broadhurst, licensed specifically for Hack’s use. The intricate designs can sometimes take up to 19 hours to apply. When finished, the model’s body is at once a continuation of the design and a completely unique work of art on its own. The designs accentuate, rather than hide, the fluid beauty and grace of the human form.<img src="http://i38.tinypic.com/2qx2jdc.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> The wallpaper paintings began with Emma doing the painting herself and a photographer making the images. However, as she has continued to grow as an artist, Emma has taken over the photography as well. She has experimented with adding creatures and other types of designs in to her paintings, adding a new element to the concept of her amazing body art. <img src="http://i33.tinypic.com/2i8ipzs.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Although most of her subjects have been female, Emma has also experimented with painting the male form. The wallpaper designs she uses with the male models are necessarily different; they highlight the strength of the male form and the very different curvatures of the male body. She calls all of her models her “muses,” and her affection for the art and for the human form is apparent in every painting. She manages to make the bodies of her muses look infinitely inviting, fragile and soft without once over-sexualizing them. <img src="http://i38.tinypic.com/j6ise1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Emma’s work has been shown and celebrated all around the world, winning her several awards and establishing a firm following for the budding artist. She has done many series other than the Wallpapers, including “Cowscape” which features stunning paintings on cows. Her inspiration, she says, comes from nature and all of the diverse cultures of the world.                                                                                        Add +rep if you like my post! </blockquote>
