The meantime in the drawing classes

While the fashion project was part of the design class, I was learning about proportions, colors and figures in the drawing class.
Even though the classes were different, their concepts were interlinked-


1, 2, 3 and 4 The museums- were a great way to view new, old and varied kinds and forms of art and design, and also a great opportunity to learn and draw from ! Be it dinosaurs, tribal art or roman statues- these provided for great exposure and practice!


5, 6, 7 and 8. While figure drawing, not only were the proportions very important, but what I learnt was- how to observe the lines formed by the body and represent them on paper- which I used while SEEING to create the garment, and representing it on paper.


9. Drawing parts of a building or a city however have a different approach to them. Drawing these geometric figures felt like paying a tribute to the grandeur of New York City. The angles, elevation, slats and slopes, straight lines were all a part of the scene. These saw a reflection in the fashion project too- in the form of being similar to an elevator- represented by origami!
