Reborning, An Evolving Artform

One of the things that I respect most about the art of reborning is the way it is always evolving. New mediums, different tools and various techniques create so many possibilities for each completed doll, that it is practically impossible to end up with two identical dolls. Each creation is an opportunity for learning new skills and surpassing past achievements in realism. There are also so many different methods used to reborn that there is seemingly no “right way” or “wrong way” to do things. This diversity is one of the reasons I wanted to create Lifelike Dolls magazine. There are so many talented artists out there and I am so excited to be able to share their experiences and techniques with both new and experienced artists around the world. I hope that each and every one of our readers gets something positive from the articles and tutorials and puts down the magazine with a keen desire to create lifelike baby dolls to the best of his/her ability. As an artist myself, I have learned a great deal from our contributors and I am eager to try new techniques and create beautiful dolls.

  1. The latest rage in dolls and doll collecting has been reborn dolls. Odd name you may think for dolls but it's because of the process of making these dolls, that they get their name.

    Reborn dolls are highly realistic looking dolls made of vinyl that begin their life as ordinary dolls which are taken apart and reassembled. This is where the name (reborn) comes from.
