The Artist, Sharon Core

Sharon Core meticulously constructs and reimagines the subjects of historical paintings or artistic genres and photographs the results.
A light-skinned adult woman seen from the shoulders up. Her dark hair reaches to her shoulders, clad in denim. She has green eyes and a mole above the left side of her mouth. Her green eyes look straight into the camera and match the green behind her.
