Jil Ripault Body Paint Artist

12 Feb 2021

Jil Ripault is a body paint artist who is on the island of Koh Phangan for the second time.

She was recommended to visit by another artist Valentin Loight who suggested that it was the perfect place for her to bring her talent and skills.


Jil has always enjoyed art and found herself bored of painting on a flat surface and so moved on to the human body where she enjoys the curves and facial features.

We talk about her beautiful project for Jungle Experience with dancer Ligad, how the island inspires here, what techniques she uses and how she learnt to master this amazing skill.

Jil hopes to return to the body painting festival in Austria to claim a prize! Enjoy our lovely chat with this talented being.
