An artist degreases the mold, slits holes for eyes and mouth and proceeds to the hardest part – the painting of a doll. Reborns are painted with acrylic and oil paints. First the artist creates the natural skin tone of an infant, and then he draws a unique ornament of veins, capillaries, spots and so on.

After that the artist fabricates the texture of the skin with a special varnish. Finally, he carefully implants finest mohair into the doll’s head and mounts two glass eyes.
