September 6, 2007 Body painter Nelly Recchia by Joey Phi A former teacher of mine, multi award winner Nelly Recchia never ceased to impress me. She's very passionate about her work and probably the best body painter I've seen in my life. To paint for over 13 hours straight, you've got to be dedicated! Her art is technical yet emotional, dark and delicate, soft but strong. Quite impressive. Nelly Recchia
