And this is not the first time the dynamic duo have been recognized for their work. They are the only artists in their field to win five world championships in a row, in all five of the categories offered.

But that's not all.

They won a Guinness World Record for 'Most Bodies Panted', were the first American Bodypaint Artists invited to present at a Tedx Talk, and also helped create the 'Living Art America: The North American Bodypainting Championships'.
