fashion sketching, portfolio, fashion drawing, fashion fabrics……..
model drawing, creative process, drawing skills…..
art supplies for fashion art (analog and basic digital for ipad, android, tablet or phone and apps)….

The topics are designed to inspire conversation and questions
We’ll grow and expand our skills, vision, and connection to our creative process!

and dive into the material or conversations as much or as little as you wish!
You are perfectly welcome to just come and sketch, or to jump in with questions or share.

You’ll start to notice that your questions and sharing help others and vice versa!
Each week, you’ll get exposed to new topics related to fashion drawing, fashion art and fashion illustration:
clothed and leotard curated styles and poses ( I hand -pick every image and pose for a reason!) , lively jazz and world music, and comeraderie--that stimulate and affirm your creative process (how great is that)? You'll be actively practicing and exploring every single week, and IF YOU WANT feedback or guidance, we are there for you!
Meeting weekly and investing means that you are sure to dedicate time to your personal/ professional creative development every week, and feel continuity in your growth!

Online teaching? I created Parsons School of Design’s very first online fashion studio course in 2008 while on the Full Time Fashion Design Faculty (before my youngest daughter was born and I started to reduce my schedule)
I’ve worked and taughtsamplemaking, patternmaking, draping, sewing,illustration, flat sketching, technical design and fittings, to teaching Portfolio to Parsons Graduates going out into the business.
