DIGITAL Fashion Sketching  and IllustrationSamples

I lovingly  compiled an online course dedicated to freehand digital fashion sketching on your digital devices because I learned to love this medium SO MUCH!!  

It took time to weed through and develop the freehand digital fashion sketching techniques I now teach with great enthusiasm to fashion design students.

Here are a few samples of what you can do with the skills you get in this class….. 

FREEHAND FASHION DESIGN CONCEPT CROQUIS ON THE IPAD

My ipad digital  fashion illustration course teaches  you not only my favorite apps for fashion sketching, but a framework for how to approach fashion sketching with apps in GENERAL .

 Customize figures, work with a variety of digital “media” from “marker” and “watercolor” to “gouache” and “charcoal”, ink and brush “pens” , recolor, copy and paste, resize images, design prints, and more.

With ease, on your digital device. Portable. 

 You’ll learn to use these tools to express mood, movement, texture  and ideas,  as well as work out technical design thinking .

Create fashion croquis concept collections of  garments with formats and  fashion design processes that I CANNOT WAIT to see you implementing right away. 

The Ipad /digital devices have some capabilities that are unique to it. Just like analog gaouche and pencil or markers on paper do.

Whether for pure pleasure or for honing your ideas and communicating with your team to get exactly what you want in your design process by being clear the first time . Fashion illustration is a PRICELESS PROFESSIONAL FASHION DESIGN SKILL, art, and pleasure all wrapped up in one.

Digital Fashion Illustration  for concept Sketching is a tool that always brings out unexpected ideas, keeping them all backed up and tucked into your device or cloud. (Make sure  to keep your fashion art  and original design work backed up!)

DIGITAL FASHION SKETCHING: FREEHAND  ON IPAD

Draw and design, build your fashion illustration vocabulary by sketching from images of poses, figures, and fashions you love!

My Fashion Sketch Group meets weekly on zoom ALL YEAR LONG for this exact reason and joy.

From figure drawing practice–

To digitally rendering prints, textures, details and layouts. 

From digitally sketching fashion through soft pencil and watercolor effects-

To creating colored backgrounds, cutouts, collage effects and adding graphic elements into the background, or text into the foreground. COMPOSE YOUR PAGE CREATIVELY and AESTHETICALLY. 

To digitally fashion sketching rendering prints without waiting for paint to dry or needing to mix each color…(nor clean up the mess!!)

To having a kit of art supplies that never need to be replaced or run out of “ink”…

To being able to remove an error by going back in your “history” or erasing as you try out  new, bold ideas.
