I had first known I was in consideration for the World Cup wives feature when they told me that it would be with body paint. I was a little unsure, but I looked at some of the past body paint features in SI and other work by Joanne Gair. Her work was really amazing so I decided to do it.
I think it actually took around 15 hours (just the painting).
What did you do to stave off boredom while you were being painted?
Normally I am chasing around a one-year-old and doing a million things, so it was actually kind of nice to have nothing to do but sit still. We also listened to a lot of music and just chatted so it didn't seem boring.
Do you feel naked when the paint is on?
You don't feel naked, because you look in the mirror and it looks like you are wearing a swimsuit. The detailing is amazing.
