Walking with the animals:
Body artist transforms her models into beasts from zebra to seahorse in
mind-bending optical tricks
- Emma Fay, 27,
from Leicester, began performing her elaborate trick after running a hair
and beauty salon
- She spends up to six
hours working up each creation with water-based paint and two very patient
contortionists
- The art painted on the
women's white leotards include a zebra, mandrill, seahorse, giraffe,
dragonfly and spider

There's a graceful giraffe, a
brightly coloured dragonfly and a spider that's far from itsy bitsy.
At first glance, they all look like wonders from
the animal kingdom. But look a little closer and you'll spot a woman's hand
here, her foot poking out there, or the outline of her torso twisted into an
extraordinary pose.
For these remarkable images were all created by
'body concept artist' Emma Fay - with a little help from a couple of
contortionists who acted as her human 'canvas'.

Now you see it: Body artist Emma Fay, 27, spends
up to six hours creating each of her animals, from a zebra (left) to a mandrill
(right), by painting on two very patient contortionists. She lines them up and
draws composition marks on their bodies to make the images perfect

Blink and you'll miss it! One of the talented
contortionists is transformed by Miss Fay into a glittering, multi-coloured
dragonfly

Here's looking at you! The eyes on this crab are
shining out of the shoulder blades of Miss Fay's model. The 27-year-old from
Leicester used to run a hair and beauty salon, and began honing her unusual
craft three years ago. Now her pictures are known worldwide

Protected modesty: Contortionists Beth
Sykes and Lowri Thomas wear white leotards against a white background to finish

The stuff of nightmares: You wouldn't want this
giant tarantula under your bed - no matter how elegantly it was painted
Miss Fay, 27, of Leicester, has been perfecting
her unusual art for three years after previously running a hair and beauty
salon.
Each of the images in her 'The Marvels of
Nature' animal series, which also include a seahorse, mandrill, zebra and crab,
took between four and six hours to create from start to finish.
Some of the poses were so difficult they could
only be held for minutes at a time.
But thankfully for Miss Sykes and Miss Thomas,
they did not have to hold their poses throughout the painting process - the
vast majority was done in more comfortable positions, often lying down.
+23
If I could talk to the animals: The models take
their work very seriously, even when dressing up as a highly convincing
mandrill monkey
+23
+23
Thoughtful: Miss Fay said the art reminds her of
'the remarkable ways animals have evolved to survive in their surroundings'
+23
The artist in her studio: It takes great
patience, talent and upper body strength to find the west African mandrill in
Leicester
+23
Almost there! The contortionist has a rare
chance to relax as Emma and her assistants put the finishing touches to the
crab's face
+23
The process begins: One of Emma's models takes
the position for the crab portrait against a bright white background
+23
Careful work: Emma then paints white lines on
the models' bodies to help with her composition so they can relax again later
+23
Patience: Once the structure of the animal is in
place, Miss Fay can check it's worked, then paint the rest using a sponge and
brush
Miss Fay used a brush and sponge to apply the water-based
paints to their bodies. Once the painting was completed, it was then just a
case of the contortionist resuming the requisite pose so a photograph could be
taken of the finished artwork against a white background.
Miss Fay, who sells prints of her animal
creations, said: 'The photograph is pretty much the last five minutes of the
whole process - then Beth and Lowri are free to go home and have a
well-deserved shower.
'The photographs always get a briliant response.
People love the optical illusion aspect of it.
'For me, it's kind of exploration of evolution -
a study of the remarkable things humans can do with their bodies and the
remarkable ways animals have evolved to survive in their surroundings.
'I consider them pieces of art, not body
painting.'

Prepare to scare: Lowri Thomas gets into
position after being painted as a giant tarantula in artist Emma Fay's studio
in Leicester
+23
Talent: The body paint takes many hours to
apply, and the colours are chosen carefully to match those of the intended
animals
+23
Finishing touches: Miss Fay's work, including
the giant tarantula, has been shared around the world by those who marvel at
the illusions

contortionist's transformation into a bright, glittering dragonfly in Miss
Fay's studio

Painstaking: As the model holds the
uncomfortable position, artist Miss Fay uses water paints and a picture booklet
as a guide
+23
+23
Why so serious? Creating a dragonfly is no easy
task - it takes a steady hand and some careful detailing on the contortionist's
skin
