Fashion Illustration
I am fascinated by fashion as an art form. I enjoy practicing art by exploring colors, textiles and the figure through the eyes of designers who create intriguing fashion. Drawing Cabaret Couture offers themed life drawing sessions featuring a fun variety of visual experiences, textiles and designs. I draw from their online live sessions or videos, then choose my favorite poses and make watercolor or oil pastel illustrations on paper. I am an active FIDA Member and I have also done live fashion drawings at events (David Sutherland Showroom presents Fortuny Fabrics and Basshead Society presents Xtreme Body Painting Music & Art Exhibition). My fashion illustration work has been published in Lazin UK May 2021 art special edition "Creativity on Steroids", Goldfoil Magazine July 2021 Heatwave issue 09, Lazin UK July 2021 Beyond the Path Special A-rt Issue, Goldfoil Magazine August 2021 Glitch issue 10, Goldfoil Magazine September 2021 Alienation issue 11, Goldfoil Magazine October 2021 Turning 1 issue 12, Lazin UK October 2021 Art and Fashion, Goldfoil Magazine, Illuminated November 2021, and TopPosters December 2021.

FIDA x Tiffany x Elsa Peretti
3 Surreal illustrations created with watercolor on paper celebrates the life of Elsa Peretti, famed jewelry designer for Tiffany & Co and one of my favorite designers of all time. Elsa elegantly transformed silver and other materials into beautiful, wearable art objects. Her connection to nature inspired me to make these for the project, FIDA x Tiffany x ElsaPeretti presented by With Love Halston.
