Learn to paint outstanding fashion watercolors with expert guidance
from a leading fashion illustrator. Watercolor is a wonderful
medium for figure and fashion as it creates loose, impressionistic
results that capture the essence of a look without getting too
bogged down in the details. In this complete course, professional
fashion illustrator Francesco Lo Iacono shows you how to master
creating delicate, beautiful fashion illustrations. The book begins
with the best tools and materials, from paints and brushes to
pencils, paper and more. You'll then explore simple watercolor
techniques such as washes, wet-on-wet, wet-on-dry, and using the
white of the paper. Francesco then goes on to teach you about
lighting and shading, which can have a dramatic effect on your
work. And finally in the front section, you'll learn about colour,
how to create palettes, how to mix colours and achieving a range of
skin tones. Once you've covered these fundamentals, Francesco
explores the key elements of illustrating fashion, with guidance on
how to approach both male and female faces, a wide variety of hair
types and styles, different male and female poses, and how to draw
and paint garments, reflecting tailoring, drapery, volume, texture
and patterns. Twenty step-by-step projects then take these building
blocks and show you how to use them to create beautiful fashion
watercolors, starting with easier subjects and building in
complexity as your confidence grows. You'll begin by painting
handbags and shoes without models before starting to introduce
figures. The range of subjects included covers all angles, from
full figures front on and in profile to close-up make-up and beauty
illustrations. You'll also learn how to create dynamic compositions
for editorial fashion illustration. Finally, Francesco covers the
best ways to digitize and retouch your work, how to incorporate
other media alongside your watercolors, how to work live at fashion
events and how to take everything you've learned to develop your
own personal style of fashion illustration. Francesco's clients
include fashion brands Dior, Gucci, and Louis Vuitton - and with
this book you'll have all the tools you need to become an A-list
fashion illustrator too.
