The 2013 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue is out and as they've done in the past, they have featured the body painting of Joanne Gair on several of the models. Wearing nothing but Joanne's talent upon their skin, here's a look at many of Walter Iooss Jr.'s photographs of models Alyssa Miller, Anne V, Ariel Meredith, Chrissy Teigen, Kate Upton, and Nina Agdal.
