What I’ve cooked up for you this holiday weekend:

OPTION 1: Soulful Fashion Foundation Immersion–

First of all, Do you want to get comfortable and expressive in fashion sketching? From Illustration to design sketching, fabric concepts , mood boards, rendering patterns and textures, learning flat sketches, quick sketching and final illustration skills so you can create your own portfolio of original sketches, ideas and style?

OPTION 2: FREEDOM FASHION PREMIUM–

Better yet, If you want to “get it all” (I’ve taught beginner patternmaking and drawing up to portfolio over 20 years and LOVE TO SEE STUDENTS BRING IT ALL TOGETHER over time)   SOULFUL FASHION FOUNDATION IMMERSION  includes all of the courses  listed here today with lifetime access, community and support. Pace yourself and explore any or all of the courses.

OPTION 3: Model Magic–

And what if you wanted to get your toes wet by just exploring the page, and really want to learn to draw figures of any size and proportion with ease, drama, and style?  Model Magic is suitable for beginner or advanced model drawing, because it focuses on UN-DOING your habits of drawing that keep most people stuck  in common pitfalls. 

How?  Through 14 different 20 minute lessons, each teaching you a new innovative exercise, introducing a fresh art tool, and busting a new myth about art and drawing.

OPTION 4: Eveningwear Sketch and Design–

Another aspect of your adventure is Eveningwear. Imagine a fashion portfolio without the spice and flavor of this special area of drama and fantasy.  What will happen when YOU explore your style of fashion illustration while learning the tools I use to show shine, drape and detail for eveningwear and beyond?

Glitter, sequin, satin, metallic, feathers, fur, velvet, and more?…. in this course you’ll get 5 oe hour demonstrations around illustration AND design techniques. We’ll illustrate using digital devices, markers, and gouache, so you can see what’s possible and expand your range of approaches.

OPTION 5: Freehand Illustration on Digital Devices with awesome apps: “ABOUT FACES”

Maybe you’re afraid to sketch “on glass”? I sure was. Then I fell in love. It’s portable and inexpensive and soooo fun and flexible.  In the DIGITAL DRAWING COURSE called “About Faces”, you’ll learn 3 different apps for freehand fashion illustration while also learning three angles of the face, head, features, hair and explore your own style while you do it!

OPTION 6: Patternnmaking/ Draping foundations

Don’t forget that every fashion nerd wants to know more about the language of fashion…. to learn about fabric grain and how it behaves, how the grain is placed on pattern pieces. What tools are used for making patterns? How do you drape a basic bodice front and back, skirt, circle skirt, collar? What markings go on patterns? How do we call the measurements, the parts of the pattern and mannequin? what is ease, fit?

Whether you want to learn to make patterns or to talk to a patternmaker, or simply ask questions and deepen your understanding of fashion design details and elements,… this course will change the way you look at clothes… and talk about them……. and draw them!

OPTION 7: Autumn/ Winterwear collection and KNITWEAR

Most of my students find it easier to design for summer and spring at first. In this online fashion course we’ll set aside a few weeks to look at outerwear, cut-and-sew knits, handknits, how to render them, …stripes, layering, and cold weather collections which really round out your portfolio and range of expression. Again, you’ll learn how to DESGIN creatively for the season as well as techniques for rendering and quick sketching, developing your voice. This is an intermediate course for those who have completed one illustration course with me already, preferably the core foundation FREEDOM FASHION.
