I began my course in Fashion Illustration last night, taught by this amazing woman, Michelle Ker who also runs the course in the UTS program. Completely enamoured by this it is intense, well for someone like myself who struggles to place what's in my magical mind onto that vast expanse they call the "blank page".
I know I will have to do lots and lots of practising but I am really enjoying it so far. We have learnt how to draw the front figure and the three quarter figure. I have included two examples on here that our teacher drew, will have to get some copies of my attempts and post them too!
One surprising note is that you really have to visualise the human anatomy, really think how a body moves and it put together. The different segments, the bones, the flexible parts, the limbs. Everything in proportion.
Favourite quote from teacher - "These heels are higher than any human would wear but this is fashion". We love this.
