I was definitely nervous going into it, but both Danny and his assistant Julie were so friendly and personable that it was like chatting with pals... Not totally confident in my own figure, yet the painting flattered my body and I got some great photos out of it. I highly recommend this experience, and will definitely consider doing this again in the future, or as a gift. Great confidence booster for all you women out there, do it!" - Alex V., Brooklyn, NY "The body painting session I had at DenArt was absolutely amazing on every level. The painting was gorgeous and much to my surprise, done without any feeling of embarrassment at being naked lol! I had a picture that I wanted recreated and the result was simply outstanding." - Toni P., Buckeye, AZ ## Booking Information **Website:** https://denartny.com **Phone:** +1.646.926.1202 **Email:** Available through website contact form **Preparation:** Water-based, body-safe paints used for all sessions **Policies:** Cancellation and reschedule policies available on website ## Gallery Categories - Art History Series (classical painting recreations) - Asian Influenced designs - Glow/UV paintings - Original custom designs - "My Body, My Story" personal narratives - Events & Projects documentation ## Why Choose DenArt Studio? 1. **First of its kind:** Original retail body painting studio in NYC 2. **Professional expertise:** Master-level artists with international recognition 3. **Safe practices:** Water-based, body-safe paints 4. **Comprehensive experience:** From consultation to final photography 5. **Inclusive environment:** Welcoming to all body types and experience levels 6. **Social impact:** Supporting anti-trafficking efforts 7. **Proven track record:** 2000+ satisfied clients since 2011 8. **Media recognized:** Featured on major TV shows and publications Contact DenArt Studio to transform your body into a living masterpiece and create an unforgettable artistic experience in the heart of Brooklyn, New York.
