Body marbling is a painting process similar to paper marbling, in which paint is floated on water and transferred to a person's skin. Unlike the traditional oil-based technique for paper, neon or ultraviolet reactive colours are typically used, and the paint is water-based and non-toxic.[1] The term "body marbling" was coined in 2011 by Brad Lawrence of Black Light Visuals.[2][a] Body marbling has become popular at festivals.[4]

Painting process
The skin is bathed in a salt water solution which allows the paint to adhere. The desired pattern is created by adding drops of paint to the water surface, and transferred to the skin by dipping.[5] The water for painting is mixed with a thickening agent such as guar gum.[6] The skin is then dipped in a rinse bath and allowed to dry.[7] The painting is temporary and can be removed by washing.[8]
