Thank you all SO much for the lovely comments! I am SO excited to make top 20!!! yayyyy!!!
This is my son, Griffin, in a wig and a lot of makeup.
I thought it would be an interesting idea to shoot an expressionless stitched together doll but the human element is always missing when I try. So, I decided to add a human and take away the toy all together.
The wig was a necessity because otherwise he would have just looked like a guy in makeup ;) hehehehehe

Adorable person, love the dramatic hair and lips. I think you could have done without the black makeup. Perfect lighting. Nice catch lights in those blue eyes!
