Obras de Salvador Dalí inspiram criação de Mimi Choi

Após abandonar a profissão de professora para se dedicar ao ofício, Mimi Choiri faz verdadeiras obras de arte tridimencionais no corpo.

No último Halloween, por exemplo, a artista apostou em produções que criam ilusões de ótica super realistas, impossíveis de não intrigar até os mais profissionais dos maquiadores.

Ficou curioso? Quer ver mais? Então confira uma seleção dos trabalhos mais impressionantes da maquiadora:

This is MAKEUP ???????????? • “Don’t give people so much power over you that their silence leaves you questioning your worth.” • COPY AND PASTE #multipleeyes and brow makeup done on myself using @makeupforeverofficial ink liner, Aqua XL pencils and Aquarelle. Brows were painted on using Aqua Brow 25. Definitely not the most realistic looking but that was the best I could do after 3 illusions that day. Took around 1.5 hours. As @satsukisoma said to me, sometimes you feel like you’re going to have a nose bleed from what you’re doing but you just gotta keep going. ????

Who feels this way when you see fried chicken and ice cream? ???????? Painted this long ass #tongue using @kryolanofficial Supracolors, shaded with Kryolan matte eyeshadows. I was baking a cake for my parents and I got annoyed by how my tongue wants to taste everything when I shouldn’t so I decided to paint a tongue. Inspired by a digital art piece by Oleg Duo. _________________________________ What are some of the #Halloweenmakeup looks you’d like to see from me this year? ❤️ #halloween #halloween2017

THIS IS NOT TOAST, IT’S #MAKEUP. • JELLY TOAST ???????? painting on my open palm using @makeupforeverofficial @makeupforeverca Flash Case. Did this after my donut lips because that didn’t give me the satisfaction I wanted. Took me 45 minutes.

“DRIP” MAKEUP ILLUSION hand-painted using @kryolanofficial Aquacolors and @makeupforeverofficial @makeupforeverca Acrylip 501 • Concept suggested by my fiancé @andrewy527, inspired by the amazing painter @mikedargas2014 ____________________ One year ago today, my grandpa passed away.

I strongly feel that my grandpa has transferred some of his creativity and energy to me, and he’s around cheering me on everyday. In 2017 and the years forward, my new year’s resolution will always be to love the ones that I care about the best that I can and to constantly strive to be the best version of myself in every aspect. What’s yours? ❤️#newyearsresolution
