Join us for a weekend of Fashion Illustration, painting and fabric design at The Lady Denman Museum.

This workshop is suitable for beginners and experienced artists with an interest in the unique styles of fashion illustration.

We commence our workshop on Saturday by exploring the Collette Dinnigan exhibition at The Lady Denman Museum and completing some preliminary sketches. Further resources will be provided and discussed to inspire the development of your illustrations and creations.

Focusing on the human form, clothing design and materials through a variety of stylistic eras, participants can choose an era to focus on to create their illustrations and paintings.

We will experiment with a range of mediums, including, ink, watercolour, graphite and charcoal sticks, dip pens, soft pastels, pigment powders and water soluble crayons, to name a few. You can then choose your preferred medium to create your larger artworks.

Participants will learn how to illustrate and paint the human form, taking note of the specific proportions and methods used by fashion designers in various eras to present their styles with flair. This workshop will appreciate all shapes and sizes and how these are adorned to enhance the body image.

Fashion materials from the Collette Dinnigan Exhibition will also be examined to inspire the creation of your own fabric designs.

Choose to come for one day @ $160 or both for $290. All materials are provided.
We will have a fridge, sink and coffee and tea making facilities. Feel free to bring your own lunch, and morning or afternoon tea to share if you wish.
