Fashion illustration @ Altos de Chavon!!!

It is always wonderfully complex to go back to Altos de Chavon.
It makes me happy and sad. It makes me tired and excited all at once!! overwhelming!!
It is written in stone, my love for the school and my desire to contribute to it's legacy.
This time, I went to impart a fashion illustration drawing class.
Drawing is an essential skill in the language of art and design. Part of my goal is to guide my student toward the magic of mark making, and the creation of their own visual codes. In the case of fashion drawing, the idea is to represent the design and the spirit of it. My biggest reward is to witness my student's development, especially when I see them searching to find the balance between the concept, the emotions, and the physicality of drawing.
