Can YOU see the naked people hidden in these scenes?

Can YOU see the naked people hidden in these scenes?

These pictures may look like scenic landscape shots taken by a talented photographer, but look twice and you may spot something unusual in the background.

Swiss artist Filippo Ioco, 47, uses water-based paints, raw pigments, clays, dirt, and foods to paint naked bodies and camouflage them into their surroundings.

The 47-year-old travels around the globe to create his art, including Puerto Rico, Italy and California, spending between one and eight hours to set up each photograph. 

After visiting San Juan Island National Historical Park, Puerto Rico, Cala Rossa, Sicily, Italy, and Point Dume-Zuma Beach, California, Mr Ioco now hopes to travel to Alaska or Antarctica to carry out his next landscape body art adventure.

He said: 'I started developing an interest for the nude human body, but did not know how to utilise this interest, until one day I came up with the idea to camouflage bodies into my fine art.

'Body painting is not just another fashion shot; it is much more in every sense of the word.

'After camouflaging models into my fine art I started looking towards other concepts and landscapes made sense.

'I have always been a nature freak. I love everything about nature.

'A body painting can take anywhere from an hour up to eight hours if not more - it really depends on the detail of the work and how fast and efficient you are.

'I use all kinds of materials that are safe to be applied to the skin.

'I use paint brushes, sponges, my hands and anything that will give me the effect I am looking for.

'Painting trees and rocks is probably the most difficult to paint because, from afar, a tree or rock can appear as one color, but up close, it is comprised of many colors and shades.

'Through my career and body of work, I have noticed that most gravitate towards the landscapes. It is what we all understand and relate to.'
