SERIE: Embracing the Difference

Please keep in mind that my reborn dolls are not toys so are not suitable for children. Anaya is an unique and unrepeatable piece and has to be handle with care.

PAINTING:

ANAYA  is part of my Serie "Embracing the Difference" and has been reborned with BC Heat Set Paints created by Beatriz Clement & some details with Genesis. I love the way I can play with my dark african skin tones palletes.

 I apply many fine layers of paint to give the skin tone depth, contrast and realism. I always work for the best and the most natural result in my African tribe babies. Anaya has a delicatly painted complexion with slight mottling, veins, birthmarks, cute moles, tiny nevus, flaky skin, rash, wet areas, shaded nostrils ... And every detail has been shaded and bright places.  The final coat is a varnish protection and a texture medium to increase real skin appearance. A complex set of nuances that print realism to her skin.

PHOTO SHOOT:

For the shoot sessions I went for extremes: a simple nursing pillow that didn't overshadow the cute singularity of her skin.

My babies are reborn at the seaside and they all are painted and photographed with natural light. Coloring clothings, wraps and props  can project different nuances in the skin tone but this is the idea: to show how  my skin tone adapt to the different lighting and colors.   Also coloring and brightness can vary depending on the screen of your personal computer. Even my own shape can project shadows when I shoot her very close photos.

This photos have been taken in a variety of natural lighting conditions and different days to show the changes on Anaya´s  skin tone and her volumes.
