Olufemi Babalola

I am a fine artist, specialized in body art. In this course, my intention is to teach you about body art and the business side to this skill.  My motto is ''Body art is not merely about painting the body in a decorative way. It is a means of sharing messages, distinguishing people and beautifying the body.''
