Laura Volpintesta, Fashion Illustration Tribe
I want to see you come out of your shell! All of those ideas in your head....I'm here to give you the tools, one by one, to bring them out onto paper, in an encouraging environment that meets you one your schedule. I want you to feel safe to create as you grow into your confidence in a playful, exploring, deep way to know what fashion students are learning in my classes for 20 years now at the best fashion schools, but without the debt and pressure. This is where you can get empowered in a place where you are in the driver's seat, and what you feel, think, know and are curious about matters as you develop your unique style and voice to share with the world....or even just for yourself. I want you to never be afraid of a blank piece of paper again....... xoxo Laura

About this course
Welcome, GORGEOUS VISIONARY!
(...YES, that welcome INCLUDES you BEGINNERS as well as more experienced who want to take this as far as you can go!)
Release your fears, get your skills, find your voice.
You do not want to be trained and restrained (by unrealistic "fashion" body proportions or other rules that don't make sense.) You want FREEDOM.
Freedom to create, discover, explore, expand, and get to know yourself more deeply in the process.
You want to all of this while becoming fluent, skilled, precise, accurate, knowledgeable in the verbal, visual, and crafted language of fashion design and illustration.
You want an environment where you are supported and guided in your fashion studies, not dictated to, to create and express your unique ideas and style.
I WANT to draw it out of you through guided assignments, consistent support as you feel you need it, and through holding the vision for what I know you are capable of and bringing you there through your own experience and motivation in this course container.
My genius and gift after 20 years of fashion teaching is
- to see your strengths beyond your uncertainty,
- to tap you into a deep sense of magic, connection and creativity
- to fan your flame however faint until your voice and skill are strong
- to make each skill (listed below) approachable and understandable
- to undo beliefs you have about yourself and your abilities so that you can soar at a whole new level
- to give you a solid foundation in fashion art and design skills for a lifetime of creativity
My intention and experience is to create SUCH a supportive and safe environment that you are able to amaze yourself in a program that will have you taking creative and adventurous risks working with a playful and free approach going deep in your learning journey.
