About: I am a conceptual artist, and my DIY projects are mostly inspired by pop culture (movies, music, sports, TV). I mostly specialize in painting, graphic design, drawing, digital photography, performance art, and…

If you remember Gotye's 2012 music video for "Somebody That I Used To Know", the singer himself was slathered with Australian body artist Emma Hack's beautiful abstracted design which makes him look like as if he has "faded" within the backdrop. This face paint design I re-enacted was inspired by the video and I was very happy to give it my first crack at it!

Step 1: Observe the Video

Just watch how I created the design.
