The cold weather didn't stop the fashionistas, buyers, fashion bloggers, press and others looking for a chance to see <a href="https://raulpenaranda.com/" target="_blank">Raul Penaranda</a>'s fabulous new collection at his show, presented at the <a href="https://www.societyillustrators.org/" target="_blank">Society of Illustrators</a>. I was asked to sketch the models during the event, along with three other illustrators who also happen to be great friends. It's always a bit nerve racking sketching live when people are looking over your shoulder and beside you and watching every brush stroke! After half an hour - and some very nice wine - I started to relax and just enjoy the atmosphere, the fashion and the very fact that I was sketching at the Society of Illustrators during <a href="http://nyfw.com/" target="_blank">New York Fashion Week</a>. I used to read about fashion illustrators in NYC when I was a kid and they all had a connection with the Society. Sometimes it's good to just savor the moment!<br />

</div>
The New York Academy of Art was host to the fashion presentation of <a href="http://whit-ny.com/" target="_blank">Whit-NY</a> by Whitney Pozgay, during New York Fashion Week. I was asked to sketch the models wearing designs from the Spring Summer 2017 collection. A great afternoon and I also got a treat when cookies featuring my illustrations arrived at my door sometime later!<br />

The time is now right for me to combine my digital, artistic, interior and illustrative skills to pursue surface design for apparel and home furnishings.

</div>
Finally I got around to to sketching on my iPad Mini at a live drawing session at the Society of Illustrators. I mixed it up from pose to pose alternating between the iPad and my regular sketchbook. It was a wonderful way of working that helped loosen me up. It also helped having the male performance artists work their magic! I enjoy transforming them into female fashion illustrations. It's fun working from my imagination as well as from life.<br />

It's always so much fun trying to capture the gesture of the models in short time.<br />

Heather works with stylists and designers during New York Fashion Week and her designs have been photographed by Steven Meisel and Tom Munro for Vogue Italia and Mario Testino for V Magazine to name a few. My interpretations of her headpieces were sketched from life in watercolor and finished digitally.

Pairing various fashion apparel, footwear and accessories from the catwalk, I illustrated their styling visions for an editorial feature on their blog.

It was fun keeping the shapes quite simple without the need for details and facial features. Sometimes less really is more.<div>

I like the angular lines rather than the soft more curved lines of women. However, I am asked to draw more women than men and when I sketch for practice, the models are mostly women. Here are two sketches drawn from life at the <a href="http://www.societyillustrators.org/" target="_blank">Society of Illustrators</a> and finished digitally. Models Justin and Frank were a treat!<br />

It was a very exciting event as I, along with 12 other illustrators, sketched backstage during the models hair and make-up preparations and then sketched during the presentation as photographers, press, bloggers, fashionistas and other invited guests swirled around us. I hope to draw more of Cesar's beautiful designs again. Thanks to Cesar and Brandon Graham of Would You Rock This. Thanks also to photographer Noam Galai and Getty Images for their kind permission to use the photo below which shows one of my sketches in progress at the event.<br />

Not only are the sisters super talented, but they are incredibly nice! Here are a couple of my finished illustrations.

Well it's not really paper, as it's 100% polypropylene. It's so smooth that graphite glides across it creating clear and bold lines. I have to adjust to using watercolor on it though as the smoothness can make the paint run if too much water is used. As I like happy accidents though, this can be a positive! The below sketch was a twenty minute pose by a model at the <a href="http://www.societyillustrators.org/" target="_blank">Society of Illustrators</a>. <div>
