I've had the outlines for these fashion illustrations sitting in the grid (okay my "Photoshop" folder) for many months waiting for a depressing, rainy day to be coloured in. Well, today was a depressing, rainy day in Vancouver (cue "It's Raining Today" by Scott Walker), so I decided to finally colour them in to unwind (it's been a very stressful week). What is different about these drawings from what I normally post is that they were drawn from scratch using my imagination and not based on a celebrity. The idea behind the first one is "Futuristic Rockabillies" (or "What if Mark Ronson and Jessie J. starred in Tron: Legacy") and the second one is an ode to my love of feathers, Jean Paul Gaultier, Givenchy and Alexander McQueen. Yep, these aren't perfect or that original, but I think they're fun so I hope you guys like them.
These are the inspiration boards behind each drawing. Big thanks to Jill for telling me about Pinterest!
That's such a good idea to use Pinterest for inspiration boards! So much work goes into your fantastic drawings. :)

ReplyDeleteThanks, Tala! It does look like Herve Leger! I must have been subconsciously thinking of bandage dresses when designing it.
