Lingerie Girls: Progress 2

By Wendy | Published: November 15, 2009
More progress with the Lingerie Girls! The last post may have seemed like it was one singular girl, but surprise! It’s in fact a series of multiple figures. I’ve always been fascinated by the female form – its lines, gestures and how it’s used as a canvas for fashion and art. This stems from my love [...]

Lingerie Girl: Progress 1

By Wendy | Published: November 2, 2009
An early look at a new series of lingerie-inspired fashion illustrations. I’m thinking pastel, girly colours with gentle line quality to bring out a soft sensibility. More to come!

Fashion Girls

By Wendy | Published: October 26, 2009
Sketching is fun! I’d like to turn some of these into finals for a series. I’ve been wanting to explore some of my favourite subjects like fashion, dance and movement and can’t wait to combine them all! These are some sketches depicting those very things. Oh how I adore lines, shading and simple textures. The last [...]

Some Sketches

By Wendy | Published: August 25, 2009
These are some sketches I drew earlier this year. Although the majority of my finished work is done digitally, I will always enjoy exploring lines and shapes with pen on paper. Fashion illustration remains a favourite.

Lost in the Moment: One

By Wendy | Published: June 15, 2009
“Lost in the Moment: One” is finished now! I took much too long on it but it was a good exercise to develop this potential new series. More finessing was applied to the girl as well as the backdrop. I initially had a frenzy of swirls and textures going on in the background but decided [...]
