Peter Beard, Make-up Artist, Sydney

About

This close-up portrait presents a profile view of a woman with freckles and blue eyes, gently holding a small green pear near her mouth. Her hand is positioned in the foreground with neatly manicured nails, cradling the fruit. She wears a garment with delicate white lace trim visible at the collar. The lighting is soft and directional, highlighting skin texture and the contours of her face. Set against a solid dark background, the composition focuses intently on tactile details and natural tones.
