Fashion Illustration

Tonight is the last night of my fashion illustration class at 3rd Ward.  It has gone by way too fast and I could definitely use another 6 weeks of it.

It is funny to be working backwards–going from a process of being able to cut a pattern from an idea and sew a finished costume to the first step of the the initial sketch–but I know finding my own drawing style is going to change the way I design in a positive way.  It is so important to be able to communicate gesture and line, especially when you are trying to render costume designs for dance.  I think I am slowly but surely getting there.  At the very least, I am not afraid to draw anymore!
