Fashion Design Illustration

design/illustration: reubenvision

This is a look I sketched by hand & then coloured on my computer. A print skirt worn with a coat, opaque tights and black heals. I may try to flesh out a whole collection based around the inspiration I was using for this look.

Pin for the Win

(PIN)

Just thought I would share a few things I have been finding on Pinterest in the last little while.

Stella seems to have a pension for florals & I am not complaining.

I might not wear the gloves but the rest of this look from Burberry is working for me.

If you are not yet a fan of green a word of caution; that dress will seduce you.

Carven is bringing some intense pattern to the table & people are eating it up.

The last one is to over indulge in your eye candy sensory.

Happy Weekend!

Winter Breeze :illustration submission

illustration: reubenvision

This is a submission for a "zine" being published for a local music festival. The general unofficial theme is surviving the cold weather of winter. I decided to play with the idea of a warm winter sweater & a cool icy breeze. I submitted it a little late but hope it will still be included.

(please full view for better effect)

Back at the Drawing Board

illustration: reubenvision

Here is the progress I have made on my most recent drawing. (sorry for the odd angle; my scanner isn't working so this is from my camera) I am planning on developing this piece a lot more & hoping to submit it to a local "Zine" which features writing & art.
Wishing you all a relaxing weekend (& secretly hoping mine will be very productive!)

Taking the Cake

illustration: reubenvision

I decided to make this drawing a little "topsy-turvy" as a reflection of my schedule lately. I haven't posted in what feels like forever & I will try to get some more content up here to make up for it. I referenced her legs from a great illustrater that I have only recently discovered. Check out her blog here: caitlinquiet.blogspot.com I am not overly pleased with how this turned out; but that is what practice is for. I am also taking a observational drawing course right now & I might upload some of my class works.

Louis Vuitton spring/summer 2012 Illustration

illustration: reubenvision

So as some of you may know Marc Jacob's spun pastel & cotton candy looks out of a carrousel at the Louis Vuitton s/s 2012 runway show. The oversized eyelet collars are what won me over at first, but the entire collection is very dreamy (sweet dreams I might add). I did this illustration of one of my favorite looks from the season and added the colour with gouache.

WIP: A New Painting

image: reubenvision

Here is a WIP or "Work In Progress" of a painting I started late last night. Well actually I started it way early this morning. It seems, normal sleeping patterns have decided to abandon me. I was more awake in the middle of the night then I was yesterday afternoon. If this sort of productivity comes out of such things, then perhaps I should not complain. You may notice that I am actually doing the portrait over top of another painting I did as a response to music. I am not quite sure what I will do with the abstract background in the end, but I will be sure to upload a photo of the finished product.

Magdalena Frackowiak in Sketchbook Series

illustration: reubenvision

The gorgeous Magdalena Frackowiak as seen in H&M done in ink as part of my ongoing Sketchbook Series . A project I started to practice my sketching skills. Each drawing is done with pen, no pencils or erasers allowed; that way lines must be more decisive because there is little room for error.

Dancing Along in DKNY

illustration: reubenvision

I was working on my Christmas card designs today & thought I would take a fashionable break. After browsing through the catwalk line-up from Donna Karan's latest collection, I decided to give this playful number a whirl on the sketch page. Gathering inspiration from Haiti DKNY has done a splendid job on their collection for spring/summer 2012.

Hope you are all having a lovely weekend.

Sweater Season Is Here

source: krisatomic

Cable-knit, cardigan, cozy pullover or any other warm comfortable form; sweater season is here & I am loving it. These are some great sweaters I have been "pinning" to my fashion board on Pinterest .

I am going to try & prolong the "winter jacket" as long as possible this year & my solution is sweaters.

Practice practice practice

Just another practice sketch done from a reference photo. I am trying to get a speed & consistency built into my drawings.

Diane von Furstenberg spring/summer 2012

Jacquelyn Jablonski as seen in a look from Diane von Furstenberg's latest spring/summer collection. DVF had a great wearable catwalk show. A very strong & positive line to be viewed on sept. 11th 2011.

I also love how the hair was styled for this show.
