They say a picture can express a thousand emotions, and that’s certainly true for a daring new trend that’s caught our attention. Yes, we’re talking about intimate art—specifically, the Love Is Art kit, which equips couples with everything they need to create their own unique masterpiece using their bodies while enjoying some quality time together!
Curious to see what all the hype was about, I decided to dive into this artistic adventure with my husband, wondering whether my art skills from school would translate into a more horizontal medium. I opted for the blue kit, aiming to complement our home’s color scheme because, believe it or not, I intended to showcase this creation on our wall.
Inside the kit, we found a canvas, a plastic drop sheet, vibrant blue paint, two pairs of cloth booties, and a loofah for a post-painting scrub. Before we got started, we scoured online reviews, which made me a tad anxious about the mess we might create—specifically, not just on the carpet!
A key piece of advice was to choose a soft surface to lay the canvas on, avoiding the bed to prevent warping. We moved some furniture aside to clear a space on the carpet, and since we rent, we carefully laid down towels to create a path to the bathroom. We didn’t want any awkward conversations with our landlord about a mysterious blue paint spill.
If you share your space with others, it’s wise to schedule this activity for a time when you’ll have complete privacy for a few hours. (And yes, being naked and covered in blue paint while waiting for that canvas to dry could bring about some curious questions!) It’s also a good idea to keep pets out of the room to avoid any unwanted paw prints on your artwork.
Our biggest worry, aside from potentially becoming Smurfs, was that our canvas would end up just a big blue blob. To combat this, we applied some tape to sections of the canvas beforehand.
With the setup complete, our cat safely outside, and the paint ready, we got down to business. After warming up, we took a brief pause to splatter paint randomly across the canvas. The instructions suggested pouring most of the paint directly onto the canvas instead of on our bodies to maximize coverage. To our surprise, the paint dried quickly, allowing our movements to spread it across the surface. However, any areas we missed would end up as deeper blue spots once it set.
Honestly, the setting was far from romantic. Balancing on a slightly slippery surface was tricky, and the carpet was hardly luxurious. A lot of laughter ensued as we navigated the experience.
Once we finished our unique art session, we donned the booties and headed for the bathroom to wash off the paint. The included loofah was a lifesaver, as the paint adhered quickly. We scrubbed away, and while the kit humorously suggested that the cleaning was a task for your partner, I can assure you it wasn’t the most sensual experience—but the giggles made it enjoyable!
After getting cleaned up, we relaxed while waiting for the canvas to dry completely. The next day, we picked up some wood to stretch the canvas and a clear coat sealant to finalize our masterpiece.
So, am I now an artistic genius in the realm of intimate art? The finished product looked more like a playful creation from a kindergartner than a masterpiece, but I genuinely love it. Every time we glance at it, we share a laugh, knowing the effort and fun that went into it—even if no one else understands what it truly represents.
