Course Description

Overview

In this class we will be focusing on the basic building block of fashion illustration - the body (or croquis). The more you grown in your understanding of the human form the more lifelike your illustrations look!

Many beginning illustrators skip straight to drawing clothes, without fully understanding that the base of your illustration (the body) is a main factor in the success of the final result.

This class is for everyone - from absolute beginners, to more advanced students wanting to have a refresh on the basics.

Due to the importance of this step, we will add a simple outfit on to our body at the end, but will not be focusing on clothing in this first step - this is purely about form.

By the end of this class you will:

- Have a better understanding of how the human body is connected

- Learn how to start drawing accurate figures 

- Know the process by which you can draw fashion figures anytime and anywhere!
