Body painter uses hand to create incredible works of art inspired by pythons and demons (photo)
Krysti Ellen, a licensed cosmetologist, stands out from the rest online with her mesmerising and hauntingly beautiful face paint creations.
The talented artist creatively uses her hands to complete her fantasy looks, which range from terrifying demons and snakes to light-hearted clowns and Disney scenes.
The self taught body painter, from Denver, has earned more than 54,000 Instagram followers for her unique technique.
In August, Krysti posted a snap of her 'Albino Snake' to encourage people to 'stand tall.'
She also posted a video of herself completing the intricate look, where she used white and black face paint, a pastel palette and white cat eye contact lenses.
The video has since received 226,000 views, with many praising the artist for revealing how she transforms herself each time.
Another look saw Krysti turn her face into a block of honeycomb, complete with dripping honey and a tiny bee over her eyes.
"Stickiest look to date, honey EVERYWHERE," she wrote.
Other looks include a 'vivid clown' stamped with sparkles and eye-popping paints, a 'sweets' look where she painted sweets and cupcakes across her face and a nautical creation complete with anchors and crabs.
She has also transformed herself into a number of animals including a zebra, a lion and a wolf.
In a stunning twist she also transformed her face into an iconic scene from The Little Mermaid - the look including a starry sky, water and a mini Ariel sitting on a rock gazing out at the moon.
Similar to her white python look, she also created a 'reptilian' work with black and blue paint for scales and terrifying yellow contacts.
