AN’JA is a small bust designed with clean, readable shapes that make it easy for painters to place light and build contrast. The face features sharp markings and well-defined planes, allowing for precise highlight control and subtle color transitions. The sculpt combines smooth surfaces on the skin with slightly sharper areas around the accessories, giving painters enough variety without being overwhelming.

The bust is structured to help practice essential techniques such as smooth blending, basic atmosphere lighting, warm/cold contrast and facial focus. The markings on the face offer natural points for applying color variation or spot accents, and the hair volumes are simple enough to support soft gradient work or directional lighting.

AN’JA is suitable for painters of all levels: beginners will find the volumes intuitive and forgiving, while more advanced artists can use it for quick lighting studies or controlled, high-contrast setups. This model works well for experimenting with desaturated palettes, darker skin tones, glazes or minimalistic rendering styles. Its compact size also makes it ideal for short sessions, workshops or practice projects before moving on to bigger display pieces.

Overall, AN’JA is a versatile and accessible bust that provides a solid base for improving lighting, blending and skin tone control, while remaining enjoyable and not overly detailed.
