46-year-old James Kuhn uses his face as canvas, to create some of the most eccentric face-paintings you’ve ever seen.
James Kuhn (born November 19, 1961) is a visual artist from Three Oaks, Michigan known for his face painting and performance pieces. He graduated from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
He is famous for taking on a project that implied drawing a different thing on his face, every day, for an entire year.
A man of many faces, artist James Kuhn creates some of the most incredible and bizarre masks ever seen. The eccentric face painter calls his creations “self-portraits” because he uses his own face as the canvas for his artwork.
James Kuhn has considered him an artist for his whole life, but it wasn't until he grew up that he began painting his own face with a new theme every single day. He decided to do one new face painting a day for a year, in the vein of the other “365 days of self portraits” projects.
His “self-portraits” include different animals, foods, cartoon characters and pretty much anything you can think of.
Kuhn himself admits he is addicted to face painting, always thinking about what his next design will be.
