Artist Creates Over 1,000 Paintings Using Just His Tongue





Ani K, from Kerala, India, makes paintings using his tongue. No, he doesn’t hold a paintbrush with his tongue. He actually slathers paint on it, which he then transfers on to canvas to create beautiful images.

Sounds rather gross, but the talent is certainly something to behold. Ani K, who works as a drawing teacher, says he was inspired by an artist who painted with his foot and wanted to do something like that.

He started off using his nose, but he realized that was done before and he wanted something unique. That’s when he zeroed in on his tongue. “I thought of giving my tongue a try and succeeded,” he says. “Many newspapers reported it. I got a good response. Then, I made it a regular practice.”

 
In the future his dna from his tongue will be a way to identify his paintings if they get lost or something. AN Indian artist is giving fans a taste of his work - by painting with his tongue instead of a brush. Ani K, from Kerela, has produced over 1,000 artworks - including an eight-foot rendering of Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Supper. Ani applies paint to his palette, mixes it by licking the various shades and then scoops it up ready to be applied to the canvas. He achieves various strokes by tilting and twisting his head - helping him create intricate portraits and elaborate modernist artworks. Each painting takes between three and four days to create.
