a dancing line | drawing the figure S'20


Clothes move with the body. Students brought that understanding into their sketches, in an exhibit, at the FIT Museum, entitled, Ballerina: Fashion's Modern Muse.

dancing | drawing f'19


Wendy and Edwin are so inspiring. After posting my own drawings to Instagram, I want to acknowledge a talented group of students, since this is their fifth and final class of figure drawing.

sketching clothes | SIS II '19


With a visit to the Minimalism/Maximalism show, at the FIT museum, my students practice hatching. Using parallel lines to create tones and shadows, the technique lends itself well to sketching with either a pen, or a graphite pencil.

clothed figure | life drawing S'16


Attention to both line and values are seen in these gesture drawings. With the same model, each student's distinct hand is clearly visible.

clothing | life drawing f'15


While Lindsey crops her drawings to show focus, Michelle includes the whole body to play up the movement of the garment.

adding character | drawing: figure & meaning SIS II '15


When Rivala plays with marks on the paper, not only do her figures show her energy, by the second week, she imbues them with personality.

what is the focus? | drawing s'15


With a second class on portraiture, the emphasis is on clothing. Or rather students choose which of the two is the focus. Most often it is the portrait, so then all manner of dress - or guitar - takes a back seat.

fashion illustration | drawing f'14


Here these students strategize their application of paint in a seemingly indiscriminate and playful manner. The result is a casual, street-chic approach to fashion indicative of the time in which we live. 

Happy New Year!
