In her collection ‘The Regal Twelve’ she combines photographic elements and illustrations to portray 12 female European monarchs.
Sinclair starts with a photo of a posed monarch. The image below shows Elizabeth the 1st in a heavily stylised version of her famous collared gown. The accoutrements of power are clasped in her hands. Her hair is an extraordinary feature that works as a crown. Framing her hair in the background there’s a halo which gives her a holy look. She’s sat on a chess board as a pawn, other pieces surrounding her.

The awesome things about Sinclair is her willingness to share her process - and it's amazing how much work she puts into a single photograph. This is evidenced by her video showing the process for Into the Gloaming:
