These photographs capture a quiet moment at my workbench, with the focus on the doll’s painted face. Green eyes, softly defined brows, and warm orange lips give her a distinctive expression, shown both in close-up and alongside the surrounding fabrics.
At this stage, the face takes centre stage rather than the clothing. Looking at the doll from different angles gives me a chance to consider the details before moving on to the rest of her look.
A small glimpse behind the scenes, before the finished outfit and the final photographs.
