The doll I'm working on now -between bouts in the yard and garden - is turning into one of those exotic dark skinned beauties seen only in the European Fashion Week shows. Which pleases me but getting those exotic features just right is a slow and frustrating journey.
The shape of the head gourd dictated the ethnicity, in this case. A long, narrow face, with high, prominent cheek bones, a straight, narrow nose and not-too-full lips. Her hair will be long, straight and shiny. As for her skin, I want it to have a rich golden glow. Which will mean stirring up an entire jar of the final color because I will never be able to make a second batch the exact same color.
