As an artist, the number one response I get to my work is "Wow! I can't even draw a stick figure!" To this I say LIES! While there aren't enough hours in the day for me to address the overwhelming self doubt many people possess about their creative abilities, I can share this beginner course on figure drawing for fashion. The basis for fashion illustration is the stylized and elongated figure, known as a croqui, and in this class we will be exploring the methods and techniques to create these unique illustrations.
In this class you will learn:
- principles of fashion illustration
- suggestions for materials
- the nine heads method
- how to create poses with the S curve method
- shading and stylizing your illustration
