The World Bodypainting Festival in Southern Austria is a true treat for the visual senses.

The event, now in its 20th year, is happening this weekend, blending stunning body painting exhibitions, performance and music into a festival atmosphere. There's also fashion, food, dancing, crafts and a body painting competition.

Artists compete in the World Bodypainting Championships by jostling for supremacy in six categories.
